“If we give patients the tools and the power to be their own advocates, the results can be life-changing.”

Danielle Westenberger always knew she’d choose a career helping others. But it wasn’t until she worked alongside the nurses in a hospital emergency room that she realized her true calling. “They were the ones helping to make the critical decisions on the front line,” she said. “I saw the incredible impact that they could have, which is what inspired me to become a nurse practitioner. I wanted to be an advocate for my patients.”
