Beebe Healthcare announces Women's Health nurse navigator
Beebe Healthcare wants to be there for the women in the community by providing information and answering questions about their health journeys. As part of the mission for Sussex County to be the healthiest county in the nation, Beebe has hired Carrie Snyder, MSN, APRN, FNP-BC, as the new nurse navigator for Women's Health.
Snyder will be serving as a liaison between Beebe and the community to help members navigate Beebe's services. She will answer questions and help patients understand what screenings they may need or which physicians they should contact.
Snyder started her nursing career as a registered nurse in the Intensive Care Unit at Beebe in 2004 after graduating with her nursing degree from the University of Delaware. She earned her master of science degree in nursing from Wilmington University in 2008 and was board certified by the American Nurses Credentialing Center as a family nurse practitioner. She began working as a family nurse practitioner at Beacon Family Practice and Beacon Pediatrics providing primary care for adult and pediatric patients.
She returned to Beacon Family Practice with Beebe Medical Group in 2015 after spending time working in walk-in care. She has worked as the family nurse practitioner and coordinator of Laurel High School Wellness Center and served on the action committee for Delaware Adolescent Program Inc. in Sussex County. She has also served as adjunct faculty at Wilmington University in the Family Nurse Practitioner Program.
Snyder grew up in Sussex County and now resides in Millsboro with her husband and two Beebe babies, ages 3 and 5.
"I am really excited about serving the patients of Beebe and the community in this new role. As a primary care provider, I understand the daily struggles patients face while trying to access the healthcare system and the services they need," Snyder said. "I hope to be a clinical resource for patients and families, and help reduce the burden that illness and healthcare needs can cause. I also want to help our community become the healthiest it can be."
