What a great page to follow!!

Deaf professionals in the medical field!

Today’s feature:

Her name is Jennie Kremer. She is deaf and from Columbus, Ohio. She attended Mount Carmel College of Nursing, earned her Bachelor of Science in nursing (BSN), passed the NCLEX, earned her registered nurse (RN) license, and then continued her education at Capella University, earning her master of Science in Nursing (MSN). She ultimately continued her education and skills by obtaining the cardiac vascular nursing certification (CV-BC) and is primarily working at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center in Cardiac Rhythm Device Management. Her dream is always to love what she does; if not, she will change her job. That’s the beautiful aspect of nursing. There are so many jobs within this one career! She says, “You are not defined by your disability. Just because you are HOH/deaf/Deaf does not mean you can’t do amazing things. This also does not define your intelligence. I have a thriving career and love what I do, helping pacemaker/ICD patients! I also often function as a charge nurse or preceptor in my department. You can do anything you put your mind to.”
