Introducing

“Healthcare is my calling. Nothing makes me happier than helping my clients take back control of their medical care with the right information, advice, and support.”

Experience

I have been a nurse in the Intensive Care Unit for more than 30 years where I developed a solid knowledge of and ability to work within the U.S. healthcare system. I have experience with both pediatric and adult patients in various medical areas such as cardiac care, neurology, surgery, and trauma.
From my 30 years experience as a nurse, I have many areas of strength including partnership building, strategic planning, conflict resolution; planning, coordination, and management of patients with complex diagnoses and multi-system failures. Most important as a Health Care Advisor, I am a strong patient and family advocate. I can work collaboratively with your medical team and function as a resource for team and family members both. I have the skills to work with the system to manage patient expectations and move toward achievable goals.
I learned the importance of my skills as an advocate when I took on this role when my mom battled cancer. During the seven years that she fought this disease, I became her health care advocate. Even though my mom was a pharmacist and was more than able to understand her disease and her treatment options, I was the one who discussed all the health issues with her and her doctor. I became a part of the “team” as do most family members.

Mission

My experience with my mother allowed me to see the importance of a health care advisor and I knew that this was my new passion. My mission is to provide education, resources, and tools to my clients so they can make educated, informed decisions about their healthcare.
