“II work with VNS Health clinicians and staff not only to raise their awareness of veterans’ needs but also to assist in getting those needs met. That can include enrolling patients into the VA system from scratch or helping identify and get more benefits to help their recovery. I can communicate with them on a peer level, and they can focus on getting better and getting healthy, which is what home care is for. ”

Meet Some Of Our Leaders

She oversees teams of NPs who combine advanced medical knowledge, diagnostic ability, prescriptive authority and education regarding disease management and lifestyle modifications.

She now uses her knowledge and experience to train nurse preceptees to deliver the best possible care. It means she continues to make meaningful impact – on her preceptees, and as a result, on their patients, too. She chose VNS Health because of its healthcare excellence, and because it offered the flexibility, challenges and rewards desired at different stages in her career and life.
