For the last six years she’s worked as a registered nurse at a hospital, in a school, and for home health.
“I chose to become a family nurse practitioner because I love caring for the entire family,” said Morgan Jones, DNP, FNP-C. “I have a passion for educating my patients and making sure they have the necessary resources and knowledge to navigate through any difficult situation.”
Dr. Jones is living with her significant other, Hank, and her black lab, Remi. She’s excited about living closer to her siblings in Yankton.
