Beth-El Chart (1991), The

When the wrinkled complainer in 4.3A becomes someone's mother, someone's grandmother ... When you sing lul ables to the brain dead child with

the china blue eyes ...

When you remember that your "bipolar amputee" has a name, and you lend her dignity by using it ... When you lay a tender hand on the shoulder of the frightened man who watches his two-pound son fight to live ...

When you realize that your patient's wife needs you

more than he does, and you listen to her reminis-cences over a cup of coffee ...

When your newest case.number becomes a

family--six kids, a faulty heater, and a.rent payment always

overdue ...

Then you've experienced the best in yourself, ang in

nursing, by looking at them all ... from another angle.

Students who escaped the August heat to stand in registration lines didn't speak much of it. By the semester's end in December, they shared news of it often. The Persian Gulf Crisis touched many lives in an increasingly ominous way.

Very few students did not have a friend or relative who had been sent to the hot sands of Saudi Arabia, waiting with the rest of the world for Saddam Hus-sein's next action in Kuwait. Arguments about the United States' commitment in the Middle East meant little alongside the emotional stress of sepa-ration - and fear of loss.

Several senior students, already thinking of military service after graduation, wondered how soon they

r

might face deployment in the event of war. For other students, members of military reserve units, activa-tion became reality when they left for Saudi Arabia

in January; nursing education was suspended for these students, whose friends began the semester without them and hung yellow ribbons in the Beth-El lobby as a daily reminder of their service. No one knew with certainty when they would return. Serving during the Persian Gulf Crisis:

SNA Increases Visibility

Beth-El's chapter of the Colorado Student Nurses'

Association (CSNA) began its year in the spring of

1990, electing a Board that immediately pushed

for increased visibility. Members met monthly

dur-ing the summer - the only chapter in the state to do this - and manned a table at registration to

distribute buttons and information about the

orga-nization. Over 30 students attended a breakfast

buffet in September after hearing of SNA at regis-tration and in class visits.

Creative fundraising proved to be a hallmark for

the group, which worked energetically through the

summer to gain donations from local merchants

for a drawing in October. Proceeds allowed the chapter to assist seven members with expenses to

the midyear conference in Phoenix. Other

success-ful money makers included the soupline, the call-from-Santa campaign, and a garage sale.

For the first time in 1990, Beth-El achieved con-stituency status in the NSNA and was able to seat Dottie Roberts as its first representative to the

House of Delegates in Nashville.

Chapter members remained grateful for the invalu

-able support of the Beth-El Alumni Association

and of District #3, Colorado Nurses' Association. Beth-El students continued to play a major role in the state association through service on the Board

of Directors. CSNA officers included Dottie

Rob-erts, Vice President; Patty Alexander, Secretary; Jerri Hance, Treasurer; Holly Wiepking, Program

Director; Bill Fitch, Newsletter Editor; Lisa Larson-Furtado, Breakthrough to Nursing Director; Gillian Graven, District #2 Representative.

P

ACC Initiates Positive Change

PACC continued as a force for positive change in responding to student needs. PACC provided the

impetus behind formation of the Honor Society of

Beth-El in the spring of 1990 and also initiated the idea for an activities fee to support organizations at the college. A bylaws review added greater

re-presentation to PACC from these organizations. PACC maintained sponsorship of social events like the spring banquet, held in April at the beautiful Briarhurst Manor in Manitou Springs.

Students Found Honor Society

Ideas generated by members of student govern-ment resulted in the formation of the Honor Soci-ety of Beth-El College in the spring of 1990. Dottie Roberts chaired a Sterring Committee of students, faculty, and community leaders that wrote society bylaws and planned the charter induction in May.

Over 50 inductees were honored in ceremonies at the Sacred Heart Chapel in Penrose Hospital. The guest address was delivered by Betty Hopping,

then Dean of the college, and the first Executive Board was elected.

Scholarly programs arranged for the academic year included two panel discussions, the first by

nurses in private practice and the second by hos pi-tal administrators.

A final responsibility for the Board was planning a second induction ceremony for March.

For

Variety Of Nursing

After a year as a telemetry technician, Bill Fitch

notes, "I saw the need for quality nursing and felt the

variety offered by nursing was what I was looking

for." This decision came when he was one class

from completion of a degree in biology with plans to

work as a physical therapist. Today Bill doesn't

discount a career as a nurse in physical therapy, but

he is also interested in practice as a flight nurse or

nurse anesthesist. He does expect to pick up that

last chemistry class after graduation from Beth-El,

adding a BA to the initials behind his name.

Bill entered the US Army after graduation from

high school in 1977. Trained as a pharmacy

techni-cian, he enjoyed an assignment at The Presidio in

San Francisco before arranging a "stateside swap"

to Fort Carson where wife-to-be Monique was

as-signed. The two, who had met at pharmacy school,

, were married in 1979 and discharged from the

Army in l 980. Now both attend Beth-El, the first

husband-wife team in the baccalaureate program. Bill is also a full-time employee in Memorial Hospi

-tal's ICU/CCU.

As students with three children, Bill says he and

Monique "try very hard to make our time quality time" with William (8), Elliott (4), and Amelia (2). Bill

is also an avid hunter and fisherman. He adm~ts he would love to learn to fly, to kayak, and to play the saxophone.

Besides being an active member of Beth-El SNA, Bill served this year as state news-letter editor,

sending bimonthly "Vital Signs" to CSNA members across the state. He saw the newsletter as "a me-dium for student networking," frequently publishing articles on career choices and specialty areas.

Bill anticipates working on a cardiac floor after

graduation, then going on to Intensive/Critical or Cardiac care to gain additional experience before training as an anesthesist.

Share Another Era

Not surprisingly, there's "another angle" on the

resilient graduates of 1941. Theirs was in many ways

a different nursing practice, typified by the fondly

remembered advice of school director Miss Mary K.

Smith: "Improvise!"

As Judithann Phillips Glattauer relates, nurses in

1941 treated pneumonia with poultices and

inhala-tions primarily. Marveling at the advent of sulfa

drugs and then penicillin, she notes, "I am so glad to

have been a witness." Yet for all the changes she and

her classmates would see, some of their fears were

similar to those of their 1991 counterparts. She

writes, "I really have nightmares still about going to

the closet and NO CLEAN UNIFORM! Or not hearing

the phone ring when I was on OB call. I was so green

when I went into nurses' school; it was a period of

tremendous growth for me."

Friendships also proved important to these

stu-dent nurses, and they maintained contact through creative "round robin" letter writing to share d

e-tails of their lives with friends far away. One series

of letters was circulated in 1961 as a way to catch up on the first 20 years since graduation. These letters

reveal great warmth, humor, and courage in the

'" 41 'ers."

A number of graduates even joined the armed services together to help their country through World War II. In 1991, several Beth-El graduates will also answer the call to military service in a world of increasing unrest.

Marti Willis, 38, Junior

"It was my very first trip to Haiti," Marti Willis answers

decisively when asked how she became interested in

nursing. Working for Wells Fargo at the time, she saw

an invitation in her church bulletin to be part of an -other group's medical and construction efforts in

Haiti. She left in March, 1988, and returned to apply for

admission to Beth-El in April; by June she was taking

classes at Pikes Peak Community College.

Marti worked for Wells Fargo for four years, and for

First National Bank for ten years, before becoming

attracted to community health nursing through her

experiences in Haiti. She plans eventually to practice

there, perhaps at another mission like St. Paul's.

Marti's group from Chapel of Our Saviour began the

work at St. Paul's last year; during this year's trip,

efforts went to improving the water supply in_tbe area

as well as to providing a medical mission.

"It's band-aid surgery right now," Marti says. "We're

looking at a J 5 to 20 year commitment." The hope is

eventually to staff a clinic with native healthcare provid

-ers.

Now working as Director of Children's Education at Cha

-pel of Our Saviour, Marti also teaches a Sunday school

class of first and second graders. The children are fr

e-quent guests in her home - they know the shelves in the

dining room are filled with toys just for them - and on outings to special places like the zoo.

Born in Colorado Springs to a military family that moved often, Marti nevertheless notes, "This was always home."

She now shares home with two cats, Oden and Philemon.

Her son Michael, "a stereotypical 19-year-old," is living

independently. Marti enjoys sewing and handwork in her

spare time.

Deb Isner admits her mother, an Emergency Roon nurse for 26 years, had a real impact on her decisio1 to enter nursing. "Watching her, listening to her, had, lot to do with it." As an Emergency Medical Technician

Deb now works in the Penrose Emergency Room her self and expects to continue as a registered nurse

"EMS plays such an important role in healthcare," sh1 insists. "Technology being what it is, a lot more live: are saved."

Besides her mother, Deb proudly mentions her father a counselor at North Junior High School and a Distrid

11 employee for more than 20 years. She also has ar older brother who works with Farmers Insurance

as

,

claims supervisor. Deb is a Colorado Springs native.

Deb enjoys camping and fishing, and she loves t bake--"especially pies!" She also does cross-stitch creating her own Christmas cards each year. At Beth EL Deb is a member of the Student Nurses' Associatio and the yearbook staff. "I love Beth-EI,"

she

says. "Everybody's so helpful. I feel I've made a lot of friend here."

After graduation Deb plans to trade on a few years Emergency Room experience to get a position in a trauma center in a large city. Her "big goal," though, is flight nursing. "The opportunity is there to use ACLS skills!"

Machotka, 19, Freshman

After eight years in 4H out of Falcon, Jenny Machotka has

an

impressive list of awards to her credit. Perhaps

the most prestigious, she admits, was 1988's Reserve

Grand Champion Senior Beef Showman. Last year she

was also honored as Most Outstanding-4tt Carner in El

Paso County, chosen from more than 600 eligible

members. Now a Junior Leader in Beef and Swine,

Jenny has specialized in beef breeding (showing fe

-males) and marketing (showing "finished" steers with

the most muscle and least fat possible).

Jenny also enjoys gymkana, having competed in the

past in this sport of barrel racing and pole bending on

horseback. She hopes to compete for El Paso County

Fair Queen, an award made partly on horsemanship

and partly on personality.

A 1990 graduate of Falcon High School, Jenny lives in

the town with her parents and younger sisters. The

family raises a variety of animals on their six acres and

on her grandfather's 45-acre property. Jenny works at Families Subs in Falcon, "making subs for cowboys." -She-.admits-she.-first wanted to be.-a veterinarian then

says, "I figured I'd go to people" and nursing. Jenny

has a number of friends who are nurses. She believes Emergency Room or trauma nursing will be her niche but adds with a smile, "The cruise ship nurse was real

nice" on her family's vacation.
