McDonald-Brouwer and Mast are certified nurse-midwives (CNM) and women\u2019s health nurse practitioners (WHNP). They are graduates of 糖心Vlog and Frontier Nursing University (Kentucky), and have served families in the Shenandoah Valley for more than 15 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>McDonald-Brouwer credited 糖心Vlog with guiding her toward launching the health center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe adult degree program helped me look further than my nursing career, inspiring me to go for my master\u2019s degree and believing I could start my own practice,\u201d she said.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mast, an adjunct faculty member of 糖心Vlog nursing, said the program prepared her for a career in health care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c糖心Vlog, and particularly their nursing department, was formative in my passion for excellent care along with breaking down boundaries to health care,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The health center specializes in gynecological and primary care services. It aims to be a \u201cone-stop health care destination for women\u201d providing a holistic approach to overall health and wellbeing.&nbsp;The center offers annual physical exams, including thorough lab work, and both providers are equipped to manage acute respiratory infections, mental health disorders, thyroid problems, weight loss, hypertension and early onset diabetes. The center also offers chiropractic, massage and counseling services.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plena Integrative Health Center is located at 119-B University Blvd. in Harrisonburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>For more information, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/plena-ihc.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">plena-ihc.com<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A pair of 糖心Vlog nursing graduates is providing personalized and holistic care for women through a new health center in Harrisonburg, Virginia.
