Health Content Writing That's Reliable and Relatable
Health content needs to be both accurate and well-written, a combination that's harder to find than it should be. Too often the choice is between a writer who needs every detail explained to them, or pulling a clinician away from their real job to write or check the content themselves.
I offer both. Eleven years as an ICU nurse means I bring clinical fluency to every project. I take complex clinical and scientific information and turn it into what each audience needs: content that's reliable and relatable, accurate enough to trust and clear enough to use.
I write and clinically review health content for consumer publications, academic journals, patient advocacy organizations, and medical communications agencies who need exactly that combination.

Why Work With an ICU Nurse Medical Writer
I know how clinical information behaves in the real world.
Many years as an ICU nurse, including neuro ICU, means I know what's urgent versus what can wait, what a diagnosis means for someone's day-to-day life, and where the real risk sits. That understanding shapes everything I write.
I speak your audience's language.
In the ICU, I often had to explain the same situation to a physician, an administrator, and a frightened family member, sometimes within the same five minutes. That adaptability lets me take one piece of information and reshape it for a patient, a clinician, or an executive without losing accuracy.
I deliver it right, the first time.
Nailing the brief, hitting the deadline, and needing minimal revision is the standard I bring to every project, honed in a clinical environment where there's no equivalent of a second draft.
"Jenna consistently nails briefs and delivers compelling stories requiring minimal to no edits, often ahead of schedule... a writer who can handle complex projects with ease."
— Kayleigh-Ann Clegg, Scientific News Editor at JMIR Publications

I'm a Registered Nurse with 11 years of ICU experience. I write and review health content for outlets like WebMD, AARP, and JMIR, and support communications for organizations including the Sassy Carmen Foundation and No Stomach for Cancer.
