Cheryl White, RN, MSN

Administrative Director, Primary Care and Ambulatory Services Nursing

Why did you choose to leave bedside caring?

It seems as if it chose me – I was always in charge when working and was the “go to” person for decisions even outside of that charge nurse role.

What do you like most about your job?
I like the opportunity to problem solve and make positive changes.

How many years have you been working at LUHS?
2 years

Where did you attend nursing school?
BSN -- University of Tennessee
MSN -- University of Tennessee

How do your nursing skills help in your administrative role?
I think it broadens the way I look at people and issues.

Did you receive any additional training or mentoring to help you succeed as an administrator?
I have attended several conferences and on-site training in the organizations where I have worked.
