UMFK's Principal Lecturer of Nursing Sandy Pelletier has been teaching for over a decade, and also continues to serve the community as a nurse with Northern Maine Medical Center. Sandy has played a key role in expanding UMFK's simulation lab, where students practice with highly advanced simulated mannequins before treating real humans. This provides students a controlled environment where they can safely learn their skills. She is also working towards a Doctorate in Nursing Practice, creating a program to help prepare undergraduate nursing students for mental health clinical practice. Like many of our faculty, Sandy is a UMFK alum, and also holds degrees from Husson University and the University of Maine.
