Great to meet you!

My name is Kim Nelson. I began my career working for a non-profit and helped individuals and families obtain access to food and clothes while working at a local community action agency. I worked with MassHealth for nearly 20 years as Assistant Director in the Pharmacy and Analytics Unit and later as Medical Administrator utilizing my clinical knowledge and skills as a nurse. I have nearly 15 years of experience in nursing. I have worked in outpatient clinics, partial hospitalization, a medical detoxification program, intensive outpatient, and inpatient psychiatric levels of care.
