Wound and Ostomy Specialist for Evergreen Medical Center Inpatient

Visiting Nurse Service of the NW

Wound Ostomy Continence Consulting

 

  • 1988-1999 University of Washington - My career has been in Rehab Nursing at the University of Washington.  This is where my interest in wound care began.

  • 2000-2010 Visiting Nurse Service of the NW is where I expanded my nursing role to Wound Ostomy Continence Nurse in 2003 and I have never looked back.  During this time I set up the Visiting Nurse wound care program with the goal of meeting the patient’s needs while achieving mutual goals set by the nursing and rehab team. Telemedicine provided immediate consultation to a wound specialist and was a new alternative for homebound patients who were unable to make medical appointments.

  • In 2003 with my WOCN role, I worked per diem at Virginia Mason and in 2004 began per diem at Evergreen Medical Center. I continue to enjoy both the acute hospital setting and outpatient clinic where challenging wounds and ostomy teaching are a big part of my experience there.

  • 2005 I started my Wound Ostomy Continence Consulting Business. I contract privately and with Skilled Care Facilities to assess the needs of patients and evaluate the plan of care, setting a goal for successful, comfortable living.

 

In 2015 I have not changed my work arena and continue to learn something new every day.
