Pamela Shelton RN is returning for her 11th summer as our nurse.  Pam has worked in many different areas of nursing and she is certified in case management… being sure the patient is receiving proper care.  She has been involved in home health care, alternative nursing, occupational health, and hospice work and spent five years at Mercy Hospital in Portland.  Pam has also been a RN Clinical Instructor and, most recently, she has been working in Maine schools as a substitute school nurse.  This experience has been invaluable in how to navigate the pandemic with children so they'll be in good hands this summer!  She’s also a sailor from way back.  Pam is grateful to be returning to beautiful Mt. Desert Island (and we’re incredibly grateful for her)!
