Reuter is an inpatient Urology\/Gynecology\/Gynecology Oncology nurse and nurse educator at Froedtert Hospital. As a UW-Milwaukee College of Nursing Aluma (\u201900 BS), she chose to become a nurse because she loves science, working with others and knew it would be a very stable career. Through her years at UW-Milwaukee, she also learned that nursing has options for everyone because you can go various routes with a nursing degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a seasoned nurse, Reuter stays connected through her role as a Nurse Educator and her willingness to precept BS in Nursing Completion students. Last year, a colleague approached her to precept a Capstone project, and Reuter was thrilled and accepted. Reuter went on to explain, \u201cThe reason I precept students is because I get a lot out of the experience myself. I try to explain something, and then as I\u2019m learning to teach or explain something better, I realize I\u2019m myself learning more. Working as a team through a Capstone Project is excellent for our patients. It also helps improve our organization\u2019s quality and care.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reuter continues to precept RN to BSN Capstone students and finds the experience both rewarding and fulfilling.\u00a0 51ÁÔÆæ College of Nursing can help answer any questions you have on precepting.\u00a0 For more information on becoming a preceptor, please contact the program director where your interest aligns:\u00a0RN to BSN<\/a>,\u00a0Master of Nursing<\/a>, or\u00a0Doctor of Nursing Practice<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
