Women of Distinction Magazine Selects Sharon Young, MSN/Ed, RN, CLNC as a Distinguished Professional in Her Field

    SEYMOUR, MO, January 18, 2016 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Sharon Young, MSN/Ed, RN, CLNC, Founder and CEO of Heart of Health Consulting, LLC, has been recognized as a Distinguished Professional in her field through Women of Distinction Magazine. Sharon Young, MSN/ED, RN, CLNC will be featured in the upcoming edition of the Women of Distinction Magazine in 2015/2016.

Serving her local community as a Volunteer Candy-Striper in 1965 in Lawrence, Kansas where she grew up, Sharon Young decided to attend Dallas Fashion Merchandising College after high school to learn modeling and fashion merchandising. Marrying in 1968 and raising a family, it wasn't until her children were in high school that she began pursuing a career in her dream field of healthcare. Acquiring a position in medical records, Mrs. Young then became a Certified Nurse Assistant while putting herself through nursing school. As she continued her career, she attended the University of Phoenix, graduating with a BSN in 2011, followed by her Master's in Nursing Education in 2013, both with honors.

"My passion for caring for others has kept me in the medical field for nearly 30 years," Mrs. Young said. "Several times we, as nurses, would visit patients without family or other visitors during our off hours to bring them hope and to show them that someone cared about them. The nursing field has many avenues when choosing a field of specialty. My experience began in orthopedics, then neuro-trauma intermediate, received certification as a Legal Nurse Consultant, began my career in hospice in 2003, to finally becoming an entrepreneur."

Founding Heart of Health Consulting, LLC in 2010, Mrs. Young assists companies (healthcare and non-healthcare) in some or all of their training needs through presentations (whether on site or at conferences and seminars) with training CD's available for purchase. In order to achieve one of her goals to improve community health, she developed the Heart of Health Wellness Center as a subsidiary of Heart of Health Consulting, LLC. The wellness center is in partial operation and plans to be in full operation by Spring 2016. They instruct in weight loss, essential oil education, and health concerns, such as diabetes, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Congestive Heart Failure, and others, and have services like massage therapy, Aroma Touch Technique, pedicures, and reflexology, and carry an assortment of wellness products.

In 2003, Mrs. Young began working in the hospice field as a nurse case manager. Recently, she was taken on board part-time as the Director of Operations for Faith Hospice of the Ozarks where she educates staff and assists the executive director in day-to-day operations, while still overseeing operations of her consulting business and Heart of Health Wellness Center.

Mrs. Young has authored three book, 'In the Wake of Worship', 'The Last Window of Opportunity', and 'THIN: Healthier Eating'. She is a member of numerous organizations, including the Golden Key Honor Society, Sigma Theta Tau International Omicron Delta Chapter, and Diggins Apostolic Church, has served as Chair for the Professional Education for the Missouri EOL Coalition and as Chair for their annual policy summit, was an Executive Board Member of the Boy Scouts of America's Ozark Chapter, served as President of Missouri Student Nurses Association, as President and Vice-President of the Downtown Seymour Association, and volunteered with numerous organizations throughout her career . She is also the recipient of a 2012 Community Service Award through UOPX, plus the Wood Badge and Silver Beaver Award through Boy Scouts of America.
