I am a Women’s Health Nurse Practitioner, dedicated to building the confidence of women while treating their health concerns.
We would like to thank you for supporting Joy Shakelton in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
Being over 40 comes with a wealth of experience, education, and insight. As a Nurse Practitioner I get to use these tools to provide top quality compassionate care to women.
How do you stay fabulous?Providing great care to patients requires continual education. I love researching in order to provide the most up to date and effective care possible. Self care is also extremely important. I prioritize hobbies that make me feel good … from enjoying nature to pampering myself with a spa day.
What would you do with the $40,000?I would use the $40,000 to pay for my Doctorate of Nursing Practice degree, in which I am currently enrolled. Healthcare is always changing and obtaining my doctorate will help me continue to provide the best possible care for patients as well as the opportunity to teach future Nurse Practitioners!
