MANCHESTER (April 4, 2024) – iCare Health Network is pleased to announce that Emily Hernandez has joined the iCare clinical team. Emily came onboard at iCare in January 2024 as a Regional Coordinator of Education & Infection Control, reporting to Francis Lijadu, Regional Clinical Director.
A graduate of Western Governors University, Emily has eight years of nursing experience as an RN, primarily in long term care facilities due to her love for the geriatric population. She started her nursing career in Massachusetts until moving to Connecticut in 2020 where she found her nursing niche for infection control and wound care at her previous organization.
Emily joined iCare to further expand and challenge her passion for infection control, wounds, education and nurse management. Emily enjoys spending time with her family, cooking and going to the beach.
Emily is already heavily impacting iCare’s infection control, wound care and education programs, bringing quality care and enriching the lives of residents. On behalf of the iCare team, welcome aboard Emily.
