Jean A. Edmonds, A.P.R.N.

Biography

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, going on vacation (especially to the beach or a river), and reading.

Care Philosophy

My goal is to empower patients to take control of their disease processes and to understand their chronic diseases better, so they can find ways to heal and obtain their optimal health.

Area of Interest

I have a number of special interests regarding wound management, including arterial leg, diabetic foot and venous leg ulcers; nonhealing surgical wounds; and cardiovascular issues involving lower extremities.
