Jennifer Millet, MSN, RN
Jennifer Millet is the Director of Medical Surgical Services at University Medical Center of Southern Nevada. She has been at UMC for 8 years, and has been in Las Vegas for 13 years. Prior to moving to Las Vegas, she lived in Cleveland Ohio and worked at the Cleveland Clinic and at the University Hospitals of Cleveland as a Registered Nurse and as part of the Administration team.
In her current role, she oversees five Medical Surgical units with an approximate total staff count of 300 with a range of diagnoses including General Medical Surgical issues, Orthopedic procedures, Kidney and Pancreas Transplantation, Gender Reassignment and transition surgeries, Behavioral Health and Mental Health concerns as well as Sickle Cell Crisis and Cystic Fibrosis patients and their families.
She is no stranger to rare diseases, and feels very strongly that these patients, families, and physicians need a place to gather information, gain resources, and be able to ask questions when needed. Her goal, which she hopes to accomplish through participation in the NVRDAC is to assist in developing areas for our most vulnerable and offer connections for the people who need it the most. She plans on utilizing her years of experience as a Registered Nurse as well as my administrative background to help find the best solution for our community.
