Meet Nurse Susan

With over 25 years of nursing experience across critical care, pediatrics, and emergency medicine, I bring a depth of expertise to every patient interaction. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Nursing from Luther College, where I gained extensive hands-on experience, including a year-long rotation at Mayo Clinic.

​

Throughout my career, I’ve cared for critically ill patients—from transplant and pediatric ICU cases to emergency department care—and I led a team of nurses supporting long-term care facilities during COVID-19, achieving outcomes well below national averages. I’m licensed to practice in 45 states and hold current Advanced Cardiac Life Support and Basic Life Support certifications.

​

My approach blends empathy with expertise. I understand how confusing navigating healthcare can be, and I’m passionate about providing clear, personalized guidance. Whether answering questions, advocating for patient needs, or simplifying complex care plans, I strive to empower people to make informed decisions about their health.
