What Others Say

Clients

  • “SLTFR has been receiving training from Capricorn Healthcare Consultants for a year and we couldn’t be happier.  Our medics look forward to our monthly EMS training and are completely engaged during the classes.  Highly, highly recommended!!” – Kim G., MS, NREMT-P, RN, EMS Captain; South Lake Tahoe Fire Rescue, 2020
  • Capricorn has provided Nevada Nurses Association members and non-members with numerous continuing education courses.  All have received extremely positive comments!  NNA looks forward to continuing its relationship with Capricorn in years to come! – Linda B. RN, Director of Operations, Nevada Nurses Association, 2020
  • I have had the pleasure of both taking classes taught by Sherry as well as having her assistance in building classes and I can honestly say she is amazing! Her classes are upbeat, entertaining and she comes up with ways to teach that are outside the normal boring box. When I became an educator in my current nursing position, I knew she would be the perfect person to help me build my classes. She helped me organize my ideas, create a great flow and add activities to break up the mundane lecture style of teaching. She helped me see the material from a student’s perspective and organize the information in a way that would make sense instead of just going one by one down the required objectives as I had done previously. Sherry’s energy is infectious, and I highly recommend her! – Megan S., BSN, RN; UNR Early Head Start, 2018

She has a well-rounded knowledge on every med-surg area and is not afraid to admit there’s something she’s not familiar with.

  • When Ms. Stofko became ED Educator, her determination and ability to give her fellow ED nurses the tools necessary to perform at their best was evident. Ms. Stofko is capable of making complicated subjects understandable, renewing and invigorating repetitive subjects, and engaging her students. From new graduates to experienced nurses, she can effectively communicate to them the information they need to excel in their job. Most importantly, she can convey the relevancy of what she is teaching. Nurses left her classes looking forward to applying what they had learned. – D.J. D., RN; Barton Memorial Hospital, 2019
  • I have found Sherry to be an excellent educator. She has positively impacted the quality of nursing education at our facility. She shows a passion for education that is not often seen, even when teaching basic or regulatory skills. She sees the merit in education at all levels and strives to help others see it as well. Sherry has excellent leadership qualities. Her knowledge base in a variety of areas such as Emergency Department, especially with her expertise in pediatric emergencies, is a huge advantage to our department. She has a wonderful ability to take any project and run with it as evidenced by the way she helped our facility develop a clinical ladder and redesign clinical orientation.  She sees the importance of individualizing the education experience for each participant and she is passionate about that process.  – Shawn S., MSN, RN; Saint Mary’s Regional Medical Center, 2018
