Elli Vandegeest

Health & Support Services

Garin College

Elli began considering nursing as a future career after supporting a family member through illness. She found out about the Health & Support Services programme from her teacher at school and thought that this would be a good opportunity to learn more about the health sector and study options. Being part of the programme has confirmed her decision to enrol in a nursing degree at NMIT once she finishes school.

Elli has enjoyed the practical nature of the course and the range of subjects that are covered. Her highlight so far has been working in the laboratories at NMIT. “Our tutor is so lovely. She makes the course fun, with lots of activities and conversations. It’s definitely not all paperwork! Everything we do is really achievable and the tutor is always available for help. Being part of this course has made me much more confident.”
