In 1977, Susan Bemis Marsh joined Cardiac Study Center as a Cardiac Technician. After a career spanning over two decades, she has returned to Cardiac Study Center as an Advanced Registered Nurse Practitioner. It has been a journey through health care that has covered many areas. After practicing as a cardiac and ER technologist, Susan became an RN at age 35, graduating top of her class. She then joined the staff at Tacoma General Hospital. While serving in the ICU she worked closely with cardiologists and earned a CCRN specialty designation. At age 50, Susan returned to school to complete an ARNP Masters Degree. "I wanted to have a closer relationship with patients on a long-term basis. Nurse Practitioners help reinforce and extend the doctor's treatment plan. I believe we make a real difference in patients' lives."
For Susan, returning to Cardiac Study Center was like coming home. "I could hardly wait to get back to my home base. I am very happy to be part of this great team."
