From Internships to Work Force

MASON CITY, Iowa -- It's a light atmosphere in the Sterile Processing department at Mercy Medical Center-North Iowa.

"Whatever's over here, I do," the bubbly 20-year-old from Mason City said Friday as she pushed a big instrument cart into a cart washer, and handwiped pre-sterilized, recyclable containers.
"I love it," she said. "It gets me busy. Something to do."
