Employee Spotlight

 Heather Moore

What is your Job Title / Role at RHS?

VP Clinic Operations, RHS co-owner Credentials: BSN-RN

How did you come into the Mental Health Field?

I’ve always been interested in mental health on some level. Before going to nursing school, I worked in business administration for over a decade. I found that motivation and assessing each individual’s personality and needs is key to success.  When I attended nursing school I really enjoyed my rotations at SHS and BHC. My nursing preceptor and mentor was a mental health nurse who taught me that mental stability intertwines with all body systems and can adversely or positively affect medical outcomes.

Who inspired you to pursue this career choice?

Interesting story. April Crandall’s daughter, Heather and my daughter, Sami were good friends in middle school. When April picked up her daughter from a birthday party she encouraged me to apply. I did, reluctantly, as I had three other offers on the table at the time of graduation. DeVere Hunt offered me a job at the interview and assured me that it would be the most flexible and rewarding job I could take. So, I took his words into consideration and ultimately accepted the job. He was not wrong on either account.

How important is it for you to work with our Southeast Idaho Community?

 I really enjoy all aspects of my job, including working with the community. I’m really proud of each service that is offered under the “Badger tree” and am happy to promote each one to community partners when I get a chance. It’s really amazing to hear the positive feedback RHS receives in relation to the amount of clients we are helping to live their best lives.

What is something someone might not know about you?

 Uhmmm…..I’m not sure there is anything. I’m an open book as most everyone knows. J 

What are some of your interests / hobbies?

Ahhh…I LOVE anything out doors and especially any activity I can do in the mountains with my family and friends. We love to hike, fish, cycle, dirt bike ride, camp, wake surf, kayak, paddleboard hunt, the list goes on…

What is the best advice you would give to someone just coming into this field?

Focus on the individual and find the best part about them and expound on that. Love the clients we serve unconditionally. They matter! If you do this with humility, your efforts will not go unnoticed or rewarded.
