Amy C. Smith, chief operating officer and chief nursing officer at Sharon Regional Medical Center. spoke at the Health Professions Institute’s weekly seminar on Oct. 31.

“Personally, I resonated with this presentation because I am interested in furthering my education and attending graduate school. Duquesne University sparks my interest, and I enjoyed learning about Amy’s time and experiences at Duquesne.  I conversed with Amy about what she enjoyed the most about Duquesne, and she also described her transition into a job after being in school for so long. She claimed that she still had time for a family despite being busy with her job, and she has a strong passion to this day for nursing and healthcare. Overall, this presentation was one of my favorites from this class because of Amy Smith’s passion and care for our future careers.”—Jacqueline Galford ’21

“Not only did Amy tell us where she decided to go in her educational journey, but she also told us how she had the incessant desire and drive to keep furthering her education. She told us how she was satisfied with her career, but she would always want to work towards something more. Her bold ambition and wanting to keep furthering her education were both very inspirational. I admire that type of bold ambition because that is something I want to do as well. I don't want to necessarily go back to school after I earn a Doctorate of Physical Therapy, but I do wish to keep continuing my journey in that specific type of field and become the best PT I can possibly be, as well as making my name well-known in that field too.”— Zach Lyons ’23
