Produktbeschreibung
Jeff lives with a language-based learning disability that has shaped his entire life. As a child, he entered school eager to learn and make friends, but the public schools did not know how to provide Jeff with the educational experience he needed and deserved. In 4th grade, he and his parents were told he would never finish high school and would never be able to live independently. In 5th grade, Jeff transferred to Landmark School in Massachusetts. There he learned how smart he was and that he could do whatever he wanted. "Team Jeff" rallied behind him at Landmark and in the years to come. That group of teachers, family, and friends supported him on his journey through high school, college, and graduate school, all the way to where he is now--a board certified nurse practitioner.

In 1999 he received his Bachelor of Science degree from Colby-Sawyer College (NH), and in 2003 he received his Master of Science in Nursing degree from the University of Utah. Jeff Devaney, NP, lives in Utah and is now entering his second decade as a nurse practitioner at the medical center in Utah that performs more cervical disc replacements than anyone in the country.
