My name is Pam, and I have been a Nursing Assistant Instructor with Quality CNA Training since May 2025. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here and look forward to many more rewarding years contributing to the organization.
By profession, I am a Nursing Instructor at Western Tech during the day and in the evening I teach for Quality CNA Training. Over my 38-year career as a nurse, I have dedicated 26 years to educating and mentoring the next generation of healthcare professionals. My own journey began as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA), making it incredibly meaningful to come full circle by now teaching CNA courses.
I firmly believe that nursing is one of the most rewarding professions, and a strong foundation as a CNA is invaluable for personal and professional growth. CNAs play a vital role in patient care, developing the foundational skills, compassion, and work ethic that drive long-term success in the healthcare industry.
Outside of work, I enjoy reading, traveling, and spending quality time with my eight-year-old granddaughter, who brings immense joy to my life.
Bri is the Nurse Manager of Cardiology Outpatient Practices at Mayo Clinic. Her healthcare journey began at age 18 as a CNA, laying the foundation for a lifelong commitment to long-term care and healthcare leadership. Driven by a deep passion for supporting individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, Bri initially trained and worked as an Occupational Therapy Assistant before transitioning into nursing and healthcare leadership.
Today, Bri combines her clinical expertise with a strong dedication to mentorship, actively guiding and empowering the next generation of healthcare workers as they navigate the early stages of their careers by teaching for Quality CNA Training.
