Stephannie Brickey graduated from the University of Saint Francis with her BSN in 2012. Shortly after, she became an intensive care nurse where she worked at the bedside for seven years caring for a wide variety of patients, familiarizing herself in the complex care of surgical, trauma, neuro and medical patients.  She is not only skilled in lifesaving care, but also providing compassionate end of life care to patients.

Stephannie continued advancing her nursing skills by earning certifications in specialty areas including TNCC (trauma nurse core course), NIH stroke scale, and ACLS (advanced cardiac life support). As an experienced nurse she has precepted multiple new grads for their new role in the ICU, as well as numerous students completing clinical hours. After working in the intensive care unit, she transitioned into a health care providers’ office, where she was phone nurse for 17 providers and thousands of patients, triaging calls and working directly with providers to meet and address patient needs. Stephannie enjoys spending time with her family and working with the National Kidney Foundation. She plans to pursue her Master of Science in Nursing.
