TBU, RN, BSN
A graduate of the College of Eastern Utah, Utah Valley University, and Brigham Young University, Alli began her nursing career in 1997 in the Newborn ICU at Utah Valley Hospital, where she gained a lifelong love of caring for babies and children. From there she worked as a pediatric case manager until 2008 when she started doing respite care for her niece, who had a trach and ventilator. It was during these years taking care of her niece that she really came to understand what pediatric home care was all about. She observed the other agency and nurses in the home, listened to all the feedback from her brother and sister-in-law, and loved taking care of her sweet little patient. When her angel niece passed away in 2012, she began work at Horizon Home Health as a school nurse, respite nurse, and private duty nurse. In 2014, she became the director of the pediatric department. Alli knows what our patients and families need and is passionate about providing them with the best possible care!
