“I’m looking forward to working with an incredible team and having the opportunity to serve the wonderful people in my hometown,” Miget said. “My priority is making every patient feel comfortable and safe. Being trusted with their care is a privilege I will never take for granted, and I hope every patient feels heard, respected and cared for when they leave.”
Miget earned a Bachelor of Science in Nursing in 2018 while working at Mercy Perry as a nurse aide on the medical floor.

From the caregivers working behind the scenes to the doctors and advanced practice providers, everyone creates a welcoming environment that encourages learning and growth. More importantly, the people here genuinely care about one another and treat each other like family.
