A board-certified nurse practitioner has joined the Beaufort Memorial primary care team at Lady’s Island Internal Medicine.
Jenna Gossett, MSN, FNP-C, is a certified family nurse practitioner with a wide range of expertise in primary, urgent and intensive care. Gossett will help her patients modify their lifestyles in order to manage chronic conditions such as diabetes and hypertension.
Gossett entered the nursing field in 2012 and has since developed a diverse background in the healthcare industry. She worked for healthcare systems in California and around the country as a travel nurse while experiencing life in an RV. She has also been a nurse in facilities throughout South Carolina, including Columbia, Orangeburg, Greenville and Charleston.
No stranger to the Lowcountry, she has worked in the region since 2021. She took on nurse practitioner roles in emergency room settings in Varnville, then urgent care in Beaufort and now family practice on Lady’s Island, which appealed to her due to the long-term, personal connections that she will be building with her patients, she said.
“I look at my patients as a whole, modifying the approach to overall health based on their needs, lifestyle and goals,” she added.
Gossett, who earned her Master of Science in Nursing at Chamberlain University in Addison, Ill., will work with her patients on preventive care and illnesses, as well as helping patients manage chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure) and obesity.
