Hold the Line for Our New Telephonic Nurse

May 2025

A warm welcome to OHARA’s newest telephonic nurse, Teresa. Throughout her career with the VA, Teresa has helped veterans manage chronic diseases and acute illnesses to enhance self-management and well-being. She uses telehealth technology to reduce ER visits and hospital admissions through monitoring, follow-up appointments, care coordination, and education on health conditions. We are excited to add her to our telephonic roster!

Exceptionally Engaged and Responsive

Strong Collaboration

“We had our claims department meeting yesterday, and I wanted to pass along a shout-out from Kasey to your team.  She praised your excellent communication and the strong collaboration.  She and the rest of the team appreciate the extra mile OHARA goes!”

Incredible Kindness
