Ms.McKenna was truly impressive. She  caught on quickly and worked very independently.  The residents expressed how much they enjoyed her not only as a professional, but also as a person. The facility loved her as well. She was so dedicated to the cause she offered to volunteer her time. She is our first student who volunteered her entire time with us. I was very impressed with her desire to serve. She will be a great hygienist wherever she ends up.
