February 2023
After two years of not being able to gather our team for our annual team brunch, we were so happy to all be together again earlier this month to celebrate the hard work of the Emory ALS Center: physicians, clinicians, researchers, scientists, and our support team from Emory University. In fact we had so much fun that we missed getting EVERYONE in the photo - but you can see the smiles on faces from our time together.


MORE IN PERSON MULTIDISCIPLINARY CLINICS AVAILABLE IN 2023

Speaking of meeting face to face, we are happy to let you know that we are adding more In-Person Multidisciplinary Clinics to our schedule this year. When you are scheduling your next visit be sure to let our patient coordinator know if you'd like an in-person or virtual appointment.

Remember that the Goode Foundation Travel Assistance Program is available for you should you need an overnight stay before your appointment. Information and the contact form can be found HERE. Thank you to Kerry & Tanja Goode and the Goode Foundation for all they do for not only our patients but families living with ALS everywhere.

Staff Change at Emory ALS Center

After 11+ years with us, Holly Doe, RN has moved on to new opportunities. We are beyond grateful for her years of dedicated service to our team and to our patients and families. We know you join with us in wishing Holly the very best that the future has to offer.
 
Holly is leaving us in good hands with Jean Isernhagen, RN BSN PHN. We asked Jean to share a little about her background and personal interests so you can get to know her even before you meet her in person.

A Little About Me:
I have ten years experience as an RN. I received my B.S. in Nursing from Samuel Merritt University in 2011. I started as a new graduate at UC Davis Medical Center in their neuroscience unit, and the last nine years I was at Stanford Healthcare in their Neurosurgery unit. I worked various roles as charge nurse, float nurse, staff nurse, preceptor, and participated in various committees/education for staff. I am very excited to start a new chapter in my career as an RN Navigator at Emory ALS Clinic!

Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. Recently moved to Alpharetta from Palo Alto this past summer with my husband and 6-year-old son. I enjoy traveling, cooking/baking, and watching crime shows. 

Welcome to the team, Jean!
