Adam Bullock, BSN, RN, CEN is a Nurse Clinician in the Emergency Department at Emory Decatur Hospital. Dara Suchke, BSN, RN, is a Nurse Clinician at the Emory Hospital Inpatient Psychiatric Treatment Unit. Rika Win Kemp, BSN, RN, worked as a perinatal nurse and she is currently enrolled in a DNP program in mental health nursing at the Medical University of South Carolina.
