KELLY S. BROOKS, RN, BSN – DIRECTOR, PHYSICIAN MARKETING

“Part of the reason I became a nurse is to empower people, to give them a sense of control and understanding when facing uncertain circumstances. I’ve seen how the end of life is one of those times when people can be fearful and worried about what’s happening to them. I’ve seen how hospice gives people the opportunity to experience the end of life on their terms, with comfort and understanding. It’s so peaceful and beautiful. I’m honored to be a part of it.”
