After fleeing the hardships of the Bosnian War (1992-1995), Elvisa Muratovic’s family settled in Bowling Green, Kentucky, looking for a better life. Muratovic, BSN, RN, was six years old.
“I was born in the middle of the conflict. My grandpa fought for the Bosnians,” she says.
Growing up, the Muratovic family was fortunate enough to stay together. After seeking refuge in the United States, Elvisa Muratovic was the first of her family to learn English. Her love for nursing naturally came to light soon after.
