Title: Certified Legal Nurse Consultant (Retired)
Company: Contra Costa County
Location: San Pablo, Calif.
Hannah Head recently retired as a PHN from Contra Costa County in 2011. She spent more than 40 years in clinical practice. Nursing, teaching, mentoring, consulting and serving under-served communities is her passion, and she hopes that retirement will allow her to pursue those things in new ways. She wishes to be accepted by and available to others, and show them what she can do as a retiree. She wants to learn how to use technology in the most effective and efficient way. Ms. Head volunteered in nursing homes while she was waiting to get into school, and she entered into a successful career in critical care. She got into the community outpatient part of the job, and just kept discovering other areas that she fell in love with, such as community nursing. She then looked into community suffering, and ended in community nursing, caring for children and handling foster care, where she worked for seven years. She loved her kids and made sure that they received all they needed. She feels that nurses need to be trained properly, so her goal is to be a consultant and mentor, and help prepare and ensure qualified professionals. She also wants to be able to hold health organizations accountable. Ms. Head is doing God’s work; she thinks that it is important to find what one is good at, and do it. It is an honor for her to see others grow in whatever they are doing. Continue reading →
