Dr. Stephanie Rossi, DNP, MSN, RN, NCSN, PEL-CSN
Dr. Rossi has been a registered nurse since 2009, and before that time worked with children in settings such as park districts, local YMCAs, and early childhood education settings. As a nurse, Dr. Rossi has experience in Level 1 trauma centers in Illinois, where she cared for patients in postpartum settings, pre- and postoperative settings, women and children’s health specialties, intensive cardiac care (ICU) settings, intensive medical care, outpatient and community health, and finally, in educational settings as a nurse in sync with special education, increasing population health and improving the health of communities and families, one student at a time.
Dr. Rossi’s career in healthcare began at the community college setting, yet she was inspired to sustain her insatiable thirst for knowledge and systems improvement, and she earned her terminal degree in Doctor of Nursing Practice, where she studied the intersection of wellness, meditation, and the benefits it has on mothers and their child(ren)/family for years to come.
It is no surprise this vast background of experience contributes to her professional deliverance of family-focused dedication and tireless commitment to what is best for those she serves.
