Get to know Vicki Linscott

• Why I Chose Health Care
  “The medical field has been one of my interests since high school. My mom practices nursing as an LPN, and I have seen how much she enjoys her job and how rewarding it is for her. I wanted to find a career that was fun and rewarding for myself. The Physical Therapy Assistant program was introduced to me, and after spending time observing and participating in the work performed by physical therapists and assistants in different settings, I came to the realization that it was a career I enjoyed.”
