My Idea of Care

Caring for patients in the hospital and clinic is a privilege. Through listening, thoughtful discussion and shared decision making, I strive to build strong relationships that promote comfort and healing. In this community, we are all part of one large family, taking turns caring for one another in times of need with items big and small.
