This meant that she could float to any floor in the hospital, but loved critical care, both cardiac and regular ICU. Mary worked as a hospice nurse briefly as well prior to finding Selah House. She was at a crossroad, looking for a meaningful way to effect patients and their families longer than the length of a hospital stay. Selah provided that opportunity for Mary. She won’t say that she’s never had a more fulfilling job because they’ve all been amazing for where she was in that time of her life. Mary will say that she’s never had a more fulfilling job where she knows every single day there are women out there that she’s touched. She enjoys being a part of an amazing team that gives each patient their life back after an eating disorder has taken it away. There’s such a joy in watching the transformation from the first day of treatment until they go home. Mary’s goal for this department is to maintain a safe, rewarding, and loving atmosphere where patients and nurses alike feel a sense of being a part of a team that makes a difference. She wants her nurses to have meaningful interactions with clients that are often difficult to have time for in the hustle of other nursing disciplines.

Beyond the meal plans, Rachel helps clients learn food preparation and meal planning skills through individual sessions and groups.
