“I wanted to advance my nursing career, emphasizing quality improvement with a hands-on, clinical approach,” Savannah says. “My goal has always been to work as a nurse practitioner and learning leadership skills and quality improvement with a clinical emphasis was a great stepping stone in preparation for my NP practice.”

She says, “The opportunity to help grow CDH’s clinic and provide family care to many in our communities who may not have access to care is what brought me here.”
