Please join us in congratulating Preston on his new role as an Assistant Professor of Nursing at Southeast Missouri State University! ❤️🖤

As a SEMO alumnus, he’s excited to help prepare the next generation of nurses while continuing to care for our community. Preston will continue practicing & seeing patients at Guardian Primary Care.

Congratulations, Preston! 🩺

A pretty special full-circle moment.

Years ago, I was a nursing student at Southeast Missouri State University. Now, I’m incredibly grateful to return to SEMO as an Assistant Professor of Nursing—this time helping prepare the next generation of nurses.

It’s pretty surreal being on the other side of the classroom. I’m thankful for the professors, mentors, patients, family, and community who helped me get here, and I’m excited for this next chapter.

I will, of course, be continuing practicing and seeing patients as a Primary Care Provider. No worries, or changes here 😊

Once a Redhawk, always a Redhawk! ❤️🖤

🧠💜 Community. Education. Hope. 💜🧠

Last week, our very own Nurse Practitioner Preston Holifield had the privilege of speaking at an Alzheimer's Association community event in Jackson, Missouri, and it was an incredible experience!

It was inspiring to meet so many passionate community members, caregivers, healthcare professionals, and organizations who are committed to improving the lives of individuals living with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia.

👏 A special shoutout to the amazing community partners who were there, including Aging Matters, faculty from SEMO's Exercise Science Program, and many other organizations providing valuable resources to families throughout Southeast Missouri.

🙏 Thank you to the Alzheimer's Association for us to be a part of such a meaningful event. It was an honor to share, learn, and connect with so many wonderful people. We are already looking forward to the next opportunity!

💙 Together, we can build healthier communities—one conversation at a time.

🚨 Mom Rage is REAL—and it's more common than you think.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, or like you're not yourself during pregnancy or after having a baby... you're not alone.

In this Reel, I sit down with Erin Randol, Licensed Clinical Therapist, to talk about what "Mom Rage" really is, why it happens, and when it's time to ask for help. 💙

Mental health is just as important as physical health, and every mom deserves support without judgment.

Supporting Moms. Supporting Babies. Supporting Families. ❤️

We had such a wonderful time at our Guardian Primary Care Women’s Health Luncheon last Thursday!

A huge thank you to three incredible local professionals who shared their knowledge and passion with our community:

😁 Erin Randol, Licensed Clinical Therapist with Sunrise Therapy — providing outstanding resources for Post-Partum "Mom-Rage"

🤰 Andrea Crafton — Licensed Perinatal Therapist — helping mothers and families navigate the emotional and mental health challenges that can come with pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood.

🍼 Jentsy Philpot — Board-Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) — providing expert breastfeeding and lactation support to help moms feel confident and supported during those early months.

At Guardian Primary Care, we believe healthcare is about more than treating illness. It’s about building a strong support system for women, children, and families in our community.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the luncheon such a success!

We’re looking forward to bringing our community together for more events focused on women’s health, maternal health, newborn care, breastfeeding support, mental health, and family wellness.
