With a lifelong passion to help people achieve wellness, Tanecia began her medical journey after losing a close loved-one to cancer. Starting as a CNA on a cardiac critical care unit and then as an EMT in the Emergency Department, Tanecia recognized a common misconception with many patients that she had the privilege to care for. When asking patients if they had chronic medical conditions, many would say ‘no’, or when asked what they were taking specific medications for, many patients would say ‘I don’t know, my doctor told me to take them, so I am’.
This lack of patient knowledge gave Tanecia a desire to be more directly involved in patient’s personal healthcare, which led her to pursue and earn her Master's of Science Degree in Nursing from the University of Nevada Reno where she graduated with honors. She has over 10 years of experience in the medical field. Her experience has included working in the Operating Room specializing in Cardio-Thoracic and Neurosurgery, Indiana University Lifeline in Critical Care Transport, Indiana University Health as a Charge Nurse in the Progressive Care Unit, Stanford Healthcare Cardio-Thoracic Transplant Unit and level II Trauma Hospitals as an Intensive Care and Emergency Room Charge Nurse.
Recognizing that the key to wellness is understanding one’s condition and being an active participant in their personal healthcare, Tanecia wants to make a difference in the community she was born and raised in, not only in the way patients receive their healthcare, but also in the way they engage in their care. She believes in bringing evidence-based guidelines to treat chronic medical conditions, while engaging the patient to address the underlying root cause of disease. She believes that every individual should be involved in their medical decision-making and recognize that they hold their own unique values and preferences. Not only should all individuals be treated with dignity, respect and sensitivity to their own cultural values, but they also have the right to be completely informed and understand their medical conditions. Patient-Centered Care is the foundation of Tanecia’s medical practice and involves caring for patients (and their families) in a way that is both meaningful and valuable to each individual patient.
