In the midst of life's challenges, difficulties, and chaos, it helps to realize that we are not alone. Sharing the journey with another can offer peace, healing, hope, and an opportunity to grow. My goal is to walk with others on their journeys, to hear their stories, and to respond with empathy and understanding. As a nurse with decades of experience, I believe in a patient-centered holistic approach where patient needs are prioritized and where shared decision making is key.
