Stephanie DeRiggs
After graduating from the University of South Carolina in 1998 with my degree in nursing, I worked in a variety of hospital settings as a Registered Nurse. When returning to Pennsylvania in 2002, I then started my school nursing career while still working part-time at Harrisburg Hospital until 2006. I went on to complete my state certification for school nursing from Millersville University. Since 2003 I have been working as the High School nurse at Bermudian Springs.
