Meet Keke the NP
I was drawn to nursing because of a desire to care, to serve, and to help those in need in my community. I receive the most gratification knowing my patients are leaving my office with a clear understanding of their health status. When it comes to education, I make sure to take into consideration each one of my patients learning style and personalize their plan of care in terms they can comprehend. Many of the patients I care for all Praise me on how approachable I am, and how detailed I am when explaining to them the “why” of their treatment plan. During the 15 plus years in the healthcare field, one trend I’ve noticed is the lack of knowledge many patients have regarding “why” they should or should not be taking a medication. If we as providers take an extra 5 minutes to explain to our patients the rationale for the plan of care we would like to initiate, many patients will be more compliant with following the requests. My goal as a Provider is to become an advocator for mending the gap of knowledge deficits regarding all patients and the maintenance of their health. This page will play a very intricate part in delivering articles, news clips and up-to-date guidelines on all the latest topics affecting many in and out of the community.
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others!
