Meet Heather Brathwaite
Passionate psychiatric practitioner with the aim of providing quality care
I am an empathetic psychiatric professional dedicated to mental health care and nursing education. My journey has led me to work at places like Compass Health Systems, Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami and even to forming my own practice to be able to provide tailored quality care. My main focus is providing psychiatric evaluation and medication management services.
I also serve as an educator, teaching the art of nursing to students at the tertiary level. My years of teaching and mentoring future nurses have been incredibly rewarding. One standout moment? Helping my students achieve a 99% pass rate on the NCLEX exam.
As a proud member of the American Psychiatric Nursing Association, National Black Nurses Association, and Barbadian Nurses Association of South Florida, I am committed to delivering top-notch care.
My approach is simple yet profound: compassionate, patient-centered care. Every day, I strive to make a meaningful impact on those I serve.
