NativeArc, LLC

I’ve been in healthcare for over 40 years, 18 years as a Registered Nurse, 18 years as a CEO at Indian Health Service facilities and Tribal Health centers; and over 10+ years as a consultant. What I’ve learned is that medicine is ultimately all about people. Patients always come first. Every patient, in every encounter, deserves exceptional care and respect; this is the foundation of the work we do at NativeArc. 

Growing up on the reservation and listening to the adults speak about the hospital being seen as a place one goes to die, stayed with me, especially as a child whenever I or someone I knew had to go to the hospital. When I became a mother that is exactly where my beloved 8-year-old son made his transition. That experience is the reason I chose to accept my first CEO position. I felt that would give me a platform in making a difference in the delivery of healthcare, so that no parent will have to go through such unimaginable grief. I’m very grateful for my experiences, it challenged me and humbled me, lifted me up and dispirited me. But mostly what I’ve learned through this journey and what I know to be true is that we must strive to ensure every native community thrives, fostering a future where health equity is not just a vision, but a reality for American Indians and Alaska Natives nationwide. 

 

Upon retirement from the Indian Health Service, I was presented with an opportunity to partner with a locum tenens staffing agency. I knew exactly the company I would join. It’s an honor to be part of a noble company, ArcHealth, PBC, who envisions a world where the most vulnerable underserved communities have access to top-tier healthcare professionals, and where that care is delivered with compassion and cultural humility. 

ArcHealth recently was named in the top 10% of the Inc. 500 fastest- growing privately companies for 2024. Archealth and my company Native American Healthcare Solutions, formed an alliance, a joint-venture, NativeArc. Our mission beats with the heart of every tribal nation we serve, honoring sacred traditions while delivering exceptional clinical expertise. Our reputation as a company is rapidly expanding our ability to fill positions in numerous IHS and 638 hospitals and clinics in Alaska, Oregon, California, Arizona, South Dakota, and New Mexico.

NativeArc is proud to offer an opportunity to work with you. If you as a clinical provider are interested in joining our team or as an organization you desire for top-tier professionals to serve your patients.
