Emmy Nix, RN shares her journey with an ostomy and liver disease with her patients

 

Emmy Nix, "a graduate of Greenfield Central High School,  went on to earn her degree from Chamberlain University College of Nursing in December 2019."

“I first worked bedside with surgical patients but from the time I walked across that stage to get my nursing degree, my heart was with ostomy/GI patients,” said Nix. She is working on her wound and ostomy licensure and in August began working with IU Health wound ostomy patients."

“I’m a huge advocate and have lots of patients keep in touch with me. I’m an open book and tell patients they can ask me anything,” said Nix. She’s a big proponent of helping alleviate the stigma that comes with ostomies."
