Happy Nurse Practitioner Week to our one and only, Lauren Eitzmann! 👩‍⚕️

Lauren helps with our Family Planning Clinics, Community Outreach and Vickie's personal issues. 🤣

Last school year, Republic County High School asked Lydia and Lauren to have health talks with their freshman class. From then on, a passion to speak with our school kids in the county has grew and so has a friendship! We are now in Pike Valley's School too. We really hope we can keep educating the students and bring in expert speakers so at the very least, the kids are informed and that they realize one decision they make can make an effect on the rest of their lives. 🫶

Yesterday, we had the honor to have Wes Tjaden come speak to the Junior High and High School students at Pike Valley Schools and the Freshman Class at Republic County Schools.
Wes is a retired 20-year Grand Island Police Department Officer and school resource officer. He currently works as a safety officer for Grand Island Public Schools.
Wes taught the students about the dangers of teens va**ng, ni****ne, cannabis and associated drugs. He was awesome to listen to and gave tons of information that we didn't know. That's why we bring in the EXPERTS! 🙌
