Brief Intro

Welcome! I'm Yolanda Cardona, a dedicated and compassionate board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP-BC) and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP-BC). With a heart for serving those who've served us, I currently provide psychiatric mental health services to veterans in Florida. My journey in healthcare began in 1997, and since then, I've gained extensive experience across various settings including intensive care, emergency departments, private practice, labor and delivery, and home care. At Optum since 2015, I've been making house calls and managing complex care for chronic conditions, ensuring medication management is seamless and collaborating closely with treatment teams to create comprehensive care plans. My goal is always to enhance my professional knowledge to align with the unique needs of each client. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively with Spanish-speaking patients, breaking down language barriers to provide inclusive care. Education is also a cornerstone of my career; I achieved my post-master's certification as a PMHNP-BC from Liberty University with honors and hold an MSN from Barry University, where I graduated at the top of my class. Outside of my clinical roles, leadership has always been a part of my life—whether it was managing a team or leading projects that make a difference. I believe in holistic care that addresses every aspect of a patient's wellbeing, and I'm here to support you on your journey to better health. Let's collaborate for your brighter tomorrow.
