We want to give a warm welcome to our newest ARNP, Jonathan Hale! Jonathan grew up in Pasco, WA and has been part of the Columbia Basin community for the majority of his life.

He received his nursing degree from Washington State University and was a Registered Nurse for 13 years. Then he completed his Masters from Maryville University to become a Family Nurse Practitioner.

For several years he was a manager at the Fresenius Kidney Care Leah Layne Dialysis Clinic in Othello. “While I lived here I learned that everyone knows everyone, and I believe it makes the community closer.” Jonathan enjoys the way members of the Othello look out for each other, and he is excited to be serving them again.

Jonathan has always wanted to be part of the medical field growing up. “I really liked the sports medicine program in school, but nursing felt like the right step for me. I enjoy taking care of patients and educating them on their health, it’s very important work to me.”

He decided to come to CBHA because he appreciated how loyal staff was to the organization. Jonathan also likes how involved we are in the community. “You can tell that CBHA cares for their communities. They’re always looking for ways to be more involved, give back and show support in any way they can.”

In his free time, Jonathan enjoys spending time with his family. “I have 5 boys. And we do everything that involves being outdoors, biking, hiking and camping,” says Jonathan. He also enjoys woodworking, building things for his wife and staying busy.

Jonathan is now seeing patients at our Othello Clinic. Schedule your next appointment with him HERE. Or call 509-488-5256.
