Jena King chose to become a family nurse practitioner, because she enjoys providing care across the lifespan. She gets excited about coming to work each day knowing she can make a positive impact on patients. She has special interests in geriatrics and chronic disease management. Jena credits her family’s support for having been one of the biggest influences in her life. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with family and friends, supporting her daughters in their extracurricular activities, staying active with exercise, and traveling. As a family nurse practitioner, I engage in a collaborative approach to partner with patients to meet their acute needs and preventative medicine goals.
