Team Member Spotlight

How Long have you been with Access Healthcare? I started in November 2021 , so almost 2 years.

How did you find out about Access Healthcare and what made you choose us as your agency? I was referred by a fellow nurse who had started traveling who spoke highly of the agency and said they made it seamless to Start traveling. I chose Access because my recruiter heard me when I told her what my needs were regarding what I needed in an assignment. She found me the locations and rates that best fitted me and my family's needs.

What is the best thing about being a nurse? There are so many things that make being a nurse rewarding but a top thing that makes it the best is being able to care for others selflessly. You are able to make a difference in someone's life, it is not just a job. Whether it is being there to hold their hand through devastating test results, or pray with them before they go into surgery to bring their miracle baby into this world. Being there taking part in their care helping them through whatever hurdle life is throwing at them, to be that constant, that smile, that peace for them is for me is the best part of being a nurse.

What are some locations you have traveled to on assignment? I have been in South West Pennsylvania near the Maryland border, and I have been in New Jersey.

When you have down time, how do you like to utilize it? I have 4 children, so I am a football, cheerleading and track and field mom . We have 2 great danes they are members of our family so my downtime is spent with them as well. I enjoy gardening and cooking for my large family.
