We are continuing to spotlight and recognize our amazing team of nurses, and today we are highlighting Carolyn Whitehouse! 💚
Carolyn has 31 years in healthcare and works as an RN at Hickory Grove. She shared that her favorite thing about working here is being with the residents - they are great.
Outside of work, Carolyn enjoys crocheting, doing puzzles, and playing piano. She chose nursing because of her love for helping and caring for people.
When asked how coworkers would describe her, Carolyn said they would say “hard-working.”
Her advice to others going into nursing: Always make the patient or resident your first priority. Care is more than just meds or treatments- it’s about the whole person: physical, mental, and spiritual. Find your niche, if you don’t like your job, there are plenty of options. Switch to an area you love to be in.
Thank you, Carolyn, for always being so thorough and detail oriented in all that you do. We appreciate the support you provide to our team and residents and are thankful for the care, consistency, and willingness to always step in and help when you’re here. 💚
