In the case of an accidental opioid overdose, Naloxone could reverse the effects until help arrives.

Naloxone, often referred to by its brand name Narcan, can reverse an overdose and SAVE A LIFE. Pathways amongst other organizations in Iowa are secondary distributors of Naloxone.

✨ New staff spotlight! ✨

We are pleased to welcome Krista Begalske, Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, to Pathways. Krista will be seeing patients in Fredericksburg on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, offering virtual appointments on Thursdays, and providing care in Waverly on Fridays.

Krista has been a Family Nurse Practitioner since 2016 and returned to school to obtain a psychiatric nurse practitioner degree after recognizing the growing need for mental health services in our rural communities.

In the psychiatric nurse practitioner role, Krista provides medication management and works alongside our therapist to deliver comprehensive mental health care. Patients of all ages are welcome. Krista is able to treat a wide range of mental health concerns. She has special interests including anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, and bipolar disorder.

We are excited to expand our mental health services and look forward to supporting our community’s mental well-being!
