Since joining the PCC’s nursing faculty in 2011, Miss Hartkopf has taught a variety of nursing classes while giving hands-on clinical instruction in medical-surgical, psychiatric, and critical care at local hospitals. Miss Hartkopf now serves as chair of PCC’s nursing department, a role which allows her to provide support to students and faculty as she oversees the nursing program curriculum.
