Let’s get to know Nikki!

Nikki is a Home Health Coordinator and has been at VNA & Blue Water Hospice since June 2021.

What do you do at VNA & BWH?

I work on scheduling Home Health visits, acquiring supplies, confirming information with physician offices, and document in patient charts.

Why did you choose this type of work?

I have worked within the health field for many years, specifically in home care. I wanted to try something new but still within the medical field.

Why do you choose to work at VNA & BWH?

A friend said there was an opening and thought I would be good for the job. She had a very high opinion of the agency. I enjoy it here – the people and my work. Sure, it can be stressful at times, but what position isn’t!

What is a favorite memory you have of work?

I don’t have a specific memory. When I think about VNA, I think of the great people I work alongside – people who are always willing to help each other.

Lita recognized Nikki as a Shining Star!

Nikki is an amazing asset to the agency. She does so much and such a great job talking to patients and making calls. She ensures nurses have all needed supplies and communicates changes in our schedule and visits. I could not do my job without her.
