There are nurses. And then there are Cooper nurses.
Meet Brittany Schumacher, BSN, RN.
Q: What unit do you work on and for how long?
I work in the critical care unit and I’ve been at Cooper for five years!
Q: Why did you become a nurse?
Growing up, I spent a lot of time in hospitals due to my mom being sick. Watching the nurses take such good care of her steered me toward making nursing my career.
Q: What do you love most about being a Cooper nurse?
When a patient voices appreciation toward even the littlest thing you do, it reminds me why I started this job in the first place.
Q: What do you need to get through your 12-hour shift?
I definitely need a big coffee to get my shift started!
Q: What do you enjoy doing in your free time?
I love being with my friends and family and spending my time outdoors!
Thank you, Brittany!
