John Spencer sits down with Doug Smith, one of Platinum’s founding partners, to explore his journey into EMS and the experiences that led him to Platinum.
Confidence.Competence.Compassion.
Three powerful words at the heart of Doug’s story.
Jennifer Jensen has worked with Platinum for several years as a contracted Content Creator and has officially joined the team full-time as our Nursing Content Development Specialist.
Jennifer has spent more than 30 years as a nurse, bringing an extensive background in both clinical practice and administration. Throughout her career, she has learned that patience, good communication, and simply making someone feel a little better can go a long way. Her experience has given her a grounded, practical outlook that comes through naturally in the way she carries herself.
When she’s off the clock, you’ll find Jennifer spending time with her family, keeping up with her dog Ellie, wearing purple without a second thought, and playing The Mountain Goats a little too often.
We’re excited to welcome Jennifer in this new capacity and have her knowledge, experience, and expertise as part of the Platinum team!
