Advocate and Support

DD/ID nurses are advocates for a very specialized, often times fragile population. They work collaboratively with a team of people to support the individuals they serve. Together they work to ensure that the health and well-being of the individual are at the forefront of all decisions and care. DD/ID Nurses work with a set group of individuals and their families for years at a time. It’s not uncommon for DD Nurses to care for some individuals for decades.
