About Heather

I have a passion for and a strong commitment to providing the highest level and quality of care for my clients. One of the best parts about being a nurse in a non clinical setting is the time afforded to foster and build meaningful relationships between myself and my clients and their families. I enjoy getting to know my clients on a personal level and finding the best way to meet their individual needs. There is nothing more rewarding than a client living their best life with dignity and independence while under my care.
