Ellinwood Hospital and Clinic is happy to announce the addition of a new provider at the Ellinwood Clinic – Kelli Nash APRN. Nash is Board Certified with the American Academy of Nurse Practitioners. She will start seeing new patients August 1.

Nash is a family care practitioner, providing primary care for individuals and families from newborns to seniors. “I strive to deliver compassionate, evidence-based care across the age continuum,” explains Nash. “Our health, like many other aspects of our lives, requires work and maintenance to achieve optimal status. Together, we can make happier, healthier lives.”

“Kelli is a great addition to our practice,” reports Diane McReynolds, clinic manager. “She has been an excellent clinician in her studies, performing two rounds of student clinicals with us, and we are happy to have her join our team.” Nash also completed clinical rotations at Heart of Kansas Family Health Care, the Great Bend Children’s Clinic, and the University of Kansas Health Systems – Great Bend and Pawnee Valley campuses.

Nash has always wanted to care for others. “Since childhood, I knew that I wanted to become a nurse. As a nurse practitioner, I am given the honor and privilege to care for your loved ones. Ellinwood is a wonderful community blessed with a hospital and clinic providing quality care to family, friends, and neighbors. I am grateful and proud to serve this community.”

Nash received her undergraduate Bachelors of Nursing (BSN) from Union College in Lincoln, Neb. And her graduate Masters of Nursing (MSN) from Ball State University in Muncie, Ind. She and her husband, Justin Nash, live in rural Holyrood with their two daughters. They enjoy hiking, riding ATVs, camping, and spending time at the lake.
