Lynnelle serves as director of the Infection Prevention Program at Maury Regional Medical Centre (MRMC). She has 35 years of experience as an RN and has been at MRMC since 2008. She has been in infection prevention since 2011 and gained CBIC infection prevention certification in 2013. Prior to MRMC she served in critical care, emergency department, clinical research and project management. Her infection prevention responsibilities include oversight of the hospital departments and advisor to the MRMC system and local community partnership of long-term care facilities.
