Our Caring Staff

Brenda Stutzman, RN - Director, Orthopaedics/Neurosurgery/Joint Center

Saint Elizabeth Spine Care Center team consists of 80 dedicated staff members that are here to help you before, during, and after your surgery. From the time you arrive, our team is here to provide you with everything you need beginning with post-surgery education, meeting your healthcare needs during your stay, and assisting you with getting back to your daily activities when you return home.

We have a total of 45 Registered Nurses (RNs) on staff with 9 certified orthopaedic nurses – all here to help meet your healthcare needs. Our team’s patient education coordinator provides education and information to each patient helping them answer those before and after surgery questions as well as assisting you with transitioning back into your daily activities. We have three team coordinators who serve as a resource for you and your family as well as serving as a contact between you and your physician to assure that all of your questions are answered. Our team even has two personal care attendants on staff – a licensed massage therapist and a cosmetologist – to make your stay at Saint Elizabeth even more comfortable. Then when you are preparing to return home - our discharge planners, physical and occupational therapists, and social workers are here to help you make your plans for returning home and getting back into your daily activities.
