As a nurse case manager, it's essential to have the skills necessary to support the needs of the patient and meet the requirements of the organization's internal structure. Instructor Penelope Brown provides an advanced level of expertise that has been an integral part of my learning experience. Her exceptional talents and industry insights helped me understand the practical knowledge needed to assure effective, quality care. I owe many thanks to UCR Extension.Kerry Ruben
