Atlantic General Primary and Specialty Care

"Hi, I am Chuck Gizara. I have been part of the Atlantic General Hospital team for 22 years and currently serve as the Director of Integrated Care Management. In this role, I oversee inpatient case management, High Risk Transitions of Care Program, remote patient monitoring, outpatient care coordination, therapy services, and our outpatient wound care center.

Nursing is my second career, and it has provided me with the opportunity to advance my education, grow professionally, mentor others, and cultivate meaningful relationships. I am proud to work at AGH, where professional development and collaboration are encouraged.

My advice to future nurses is to seek new opportunities, continue your education, obtain specialty certifications, and be willing to step outside of your comfort zone.

Looking forward, my priorities include supporting a smooth transition in our affiliation with TidalHealth, implementing the new EPIC EMR, and advancing community-based Population Health and Care Management initiatives throughout the region. I am excited to be partnering with the TidalHealth team to reach these goals for our community!"
