Casey Smith, RN, BSN: Community builder, former travel & trauma nurse

Casey Smith, BSN, RN, is a former pediatric ER and trauma nurse passionate about reimagining and changing healthcare for the better - for her fellow nurses and their patients. She synthesized her love for science and people into a career in nursing. Her career began as an RN at Vanderbilt Children’s Hospital in Tennessee, where she served as a charge nurse and member of the specialized trauma and critical care team. Wanting something new, she spent a few years as a travel nurse - cultivating a love for the outdoors - and eventually settled in the Pacific Northwest. She joined the Trusted Health team just before the pandemic, and has been building community and empowering nurses to take ownership of their careers ever since.
