Senior nursing student pursues her passion at UMaine Machias and UMaine
by Hailey Wood
Lydia Sprague of Marshfield will graduate in May from the University of Maine with a bachelor’s degree in nursing. She spent her first two years at the University of Maine at Machias completing her prerequisites, then finished her last two years at UMaine.
Her clinical experience solidified her interest in pursuing a career in labor and delivery, or in pediatrics.
“Ever since I was really little, I had an absolute love for the pediatric population — kids, babies, all of that,” Sprague said. “My dream was always to be a nurse.”
