Jenna Druce
2015-2016 Community Health Director
California Baptist University I am thrilled to serve as your Community Health Director for the 2015-2016 term. At the local level, I have been actively involved with my school’s CNSA chapter since being accepted into the nursing program and served as Treasurer on the Executive Board for 2015. Our chapter has a heavy focus on outreach and giving back to our community and I plan to bring that passion to the state level. I became involved in nursing after graduating high school and enrolling in courses at a community college. When the major earthquake and tsunami struck Japan in 2011, I asked myself how I would be able to make a difference in my community if the same scenario happened in California. I began to seriously explore the career of nursing and changed my major for the last time. I had finally found my calling. After my second semester of nursing school, I travelled with a small group of nursing students to remote villages in Thailand as part of a nursing mission trip. During this journey, I became aware of how nurses can play a major role in improving the lives of our patients through health education and wellness promotion. I am excited to help CNSA have a greater impact on the community and encourage nursing students to make a commitment to care for their communities and to make a difference outside the acute care setting.
