Growing up in western New York, Elisabeth is familiar with the beauty that rural communities have to offer and she is now in Colorado to enjoy the mountains, the culture and the sunshine. Over the last year and a half she has worked at Exempla Lutheran Medical Center in Denver as a bachelor prepared RN in Neurology Step-Down Critical Care and as a float resource in the Emergency Department. Elisabeth is in the midst of Intensive Care training, as the hospital changes and adapts to the needs of the population. She has gained excellent experience and training at the hospital both on day and night shifts, working along-side neurosurgeons, respiratory therapists and hospitalists. She is looking to branch out to medical facilities that might have a more close-knit and intimate setting in terms of size, staffing and patient care. Still developing in her career, Elisabeth hopes that rural medicine might give her more exposure and possibly increased autonomy in her practice. She has certifications in ACLS and NIHSS in addition to ongoing education around the areas of neurology, cardiology and ekg interpretation. Outside of work Elisabeth likes to make time for yoga, running, mountaineering, road trips and rock-climbing which means she is meant to live in Colorado!
