JJ BARNES, MSN, RN

Jaime Jessica Barnes

Registered Nurse since 2018

MSN • Nurse Executive concentration 

Psychiatric-Mental Health NP student 

Chamberlain University

I bring a broad nursing background in behavioral health, long-term care, LTAC, skilled nursing and rehabilitation, nursing leadership, and home-based care. Before becoming an RN, I spent 13 years as a Certified Nursing Assistant.

MY CLINICAL APPROACH

I value compassionate, respectful care and clear communication with patients, families, and the interdisciplinary team. My experience includes patient assessment, medication administration, care coordination, wound care, staff education, and responding to changes in condition. As a PMHNP student, I am developing my psychiatric assessment, differential diagnosis, and psychopharmacology skills under preceptor supervision.
