Experience

Sarah Jividen, RN, BSN, is a trained neuro/trauma, and emergency room nurse turned healthcare freelance writer. As a journalism major, she combined her love for writing with her passion for high-level patient care.

Sarah now owns her own media company, Sarah Jividen Media, where she creates content from the birds-eye perspective of someone who has spent a decade working in direct patient care. She works as a freelance healthcare journalist, editor, and copywriter for several online websites and publications.

Her work is focused on various healthcare topics, education, fitness, the nursing profession, and evidence-based science surrounding health and wellness trends.

My #1 goal is to help break down complex health information for the non-medically trained audience. I want my patients to have access to accurate and reliable medical information to make the best healthcare choices they can.
