Welcome to Healthy Family Prescription! I am a mother of 3 energetic school-age children, wife to a hungry 6’6 tall man and a board-certified advanced practice nurse. I love caring for patients in a provider role but after nearly 20 years of caring for sick patients, I feel called to pour time and energy into disease prevention and wellness. I started this blog to provide encouragement and practical wellness information specifically tailored towards families. Parents have unique challenges and demands on their time and are tasked with the enormous responsibility of raising our next generation. The habits our children form now will determine their habits and behaviors into adulthood. I enjoy reading current research on wellness and nutrition and look forward to sharing my thoughts and findings with you. Much of the information available is contradictory or misleading so my goal is to be a trusted resource providing accurate, evidence-based, understandable information while also keeping it real.
