@Micah Walker Support Before Treatment This week I made progress on who I’m speaking to and I stepped fully into my purpose. Nurses are meant to connect people to resources that prevent disease and promote wellness. So, I’m done waiting behind locked doors at treatment facilities for people to check themselves in. Nursing support should be accessible to everyone, not just when they’re at rock bottom. I bring nursing support to parents navigation addiction and recovery. Care that supports them in the present, so that they can make intentional choices about their recovery, before those choices are made for them. My background is in mental health, neuroscience, and addiction & recovery. And my brother passed from his alcohol addiction in September. There’s no one else I’d rather be serving than the parent who’s not ready for give up their day-to-day, but deserves a supportive relationship that feels personal without the pressure.
