Marie Carmel Garcon, DNP, has worked at Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC) for the past 28 years. From the ICU, dealing with infectious diseases, even working with dialysis patients, the newest nurse practitioner (NP) to join ColumbiaDoctors Primary Care Nurse Practitioner Group says she’s seen it all in the hospital setting. In fact, it was after she noticed something missing when checking-in with patients after discharge that compelled her to take her new job extending primary care inside a patient’s home.
