Certification Classes

Hi! My name is Bethany M. Smith, R.N.  I received my nursing degree from SUNY Farmingdale in 2014.  I spent several years providing inpatient care on a complex medical-surgical unit before transitioning to my director role here at Louisa Ridge.  I currently serve as Director of Nursing Education where I teach, among other things,  DoDD curriculums on medication administration, health-related activities, gastrostomy & jejunostomy maintenance, and insulin administration.  I am very passionate about providing safe care and work with our team of directors to create policies that ensure safe medication administration and care to served individuals.  Working at Louisa Ridge enables me to train our DSPs and help them refine their skills, so they can provide safe, compassionate, and supportive care to our valued clients.  When I am not at work, I can be found volunteering in the community or reading a book.  Thank you for visiting our website!
