Arbor Health is adding an advanced registered nurse practitioner to its team at the Mossyrock Clinic, according to a news release from the local healthcare provider.
On Nov. 2, Arbor Health welcomed Christine Campbell, ARNP, to its Mossyrock Clinic.
Campbell brings more than 15 years of nursing experience and a strong background in patient care, along with a commitment to helping individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals, according to the news release.
Campbell has worked as a registered nurse in both inpatient and outpatient healthcare settings. After more than a decade providing patient care, she pursued additional education to become a family nurse practitioner.
"I chose to become a nurse practitioner because I wanted to take a more active role in helping patients manage their overall health and wellbeing," Campbell stated in the news release. “After many years as a nurse, I found that I especially enjoyed getting to know patients, understanding the bigger picture of their health, and helping them navigate their care."
Campbell has a particular interest in primary care, preventive health, women's health and helping patients manage chronic health conditions, according to the release.
Her approach emphasizes each patient's individual circumstances and realistic, sustainable health goals. Core to her care philosophy is encouraging patients to consider how nutrition, physical activity, stress management, sleep and social support contribute to overall wellbeing, and that patients should feel heard, understood and empowered to participate in decisions about their health, the news release stated.
"When you come to see me, I want you to feel heard, understood and comfortable being open about your health," Campbell said. "I believe good healthcare is a partnership, and I want to work with you to understand what matters most to you and what you want to achieve with your health."
Although new to Mossyrock, Campbell was drawn to Arbor Health by the opportunity to practice in a close-knit community where long-term relationships with patients and families are valued, the release stated.
She hopes to contribute to a culture of preventive and whole-person care, helping community members maintain their health, independence and quality of life.
"My goal is to help the people in the communities Arbor Health serves feel supported in taking an active role in their health," Campbell said. "I want patients to know they don't have to navigate their health alone."
