Behind the Savvy

Meet the Heart Behind Nurses with Savvy

  

Nurses With Savvy was founded with one goal: to make healthcare easier to understand and navigate for real people, not just professionals. Behind this mission is a nurse who knows the system inside and out—and more importantly, knows how it feels to be on the other side of it.

At Nurses With Savvy, we help families and healthcare professionals stay connected, informed, and supported through every step of the medical journey. We attend doctor appointments, explain treatment plans in plain language, and coordinate follow-up care to reduce confusion, stress, and hospital readmissions.

Whether you're a caregiver managing a loved one’s health or a provider focused on continuity of care after discharge, we bridge the gap between medical teams and home life, so everyone can focus on what truly matters: better outcomes and peace of mind. 


 About your Nurses With Savvy Founder


  I’m Nicole a Licensed Nurse with a Bachelors Degree in Healthcare Management, a Certified Case Manager (CCM), and trained in Six Sigma for healthcare quality. But more than that, I’m someone who knows how overwhelming the healthcare system can be.

I launched Nurses With Savvy with over a decade of clinical and operational experience, working in acute hospitals and at one of the largest managed care organizations outside of Kaiser. As a Case Manager, I see families and caregivers who need more time, guidance, and support, but the system doesn't allow for it. I know I have to be part of the solution.

My turning point came in 2018, when my husband had a stroke. Suddenly, I wasn’t just a nurse, I was a wife, a caregiver, and a mom juggling a full-time job, young kids, and a healthcare maze. I coordinated his hospital stay, transfer to acute rehab, medical equipment arrangements, and in home service needs myself, while also pursuing my bachelor’s degree from Cal State Dominguez Hills. At the same time, I worked a full time job, additionally I was overseeing the care of my aging parents, making sure they had what they needed and stepping in when challenges came up. Like many in the sandwich generation, I was constantly balancing roles and responsibilities, I know what it’s like to manage it all and still feel like it’s not enough.

That experience taught me that families need more than just instructions on papers, they need someone who understands the system and can walk with them through it. That’s why I created Nurses With Savvy: to advocate, help coordinate, and bring peace of mind to the people who need it most.

Real Savvy. Real Support.

At Nurses With Savvy, we combine clinical experience with compassion to help families navigate a complex healthcare system that often leaves them overwhelmed. I’m not just a nurse, I’m your advocate, your interpreter, and your guide.

Whether you’re a family member, caregiver managing a loved one’s care, a patient facing tough decisions, or a provider looking for a trusted partner, I bring clarity, compassion, and real-world know-how to every case.

When the System Falls Short, We Bring the Savvy

 “I don’t even know who to call.”

If you’ve ever said that or thought it when dealing with a healthcare issue, you’re not alone.

I’ve worked bedside and behind the scenes. I have sat with families who felt invisible. I’ve made calls, decoded paperwork, followed up with providers, and helped people get the care they didn’t know how to ask for.

Nurses With Savvy was started
because navigating care shouldn’t feel like a second job. Because caregivers deserve to be heard. Because your health journey deserves more than a rushed 15 minute MD office visit.

If you’re a patient, a family member, or a provider who knows this struggle firsthand, I’m here to help.
