For Rukayat, what started as a passion for mental health led her to a career serving others. Today she brings that passion to work every day as a Director of Nursing with our NeuroRestorative services, helping those with traumatic brain injuries work towards a 'new normal'.

As Rukayat shared, "I'm a big planner, so I wanted everything to go from A to B to C. But life didn't turn out that way for me. I had my kids before I went to nursing school. Looking back on that now, I'd tell my younger self to just take it one day at a time, and it will all come together. It IS coming together for me and I absolutely love that I chose this field."
