My name is Katherine, although I am called Kat by most. I love to work with people to help others and gain deep satisfaction from seeing how the care I provide, both professional and emotional, makes an impact on not only patients, but also the families and the whole care team. Nursing is my passion and I cannot wait to progress on my journey.
