Kari Scinski, BScN, RN, MN-NP

My name is Kari Scinski, BScN, RN, MN-NP, and I am a Nurse Practitioner based in Edmonton, Alberta. With over 15 years of experience in healthcare, I am committed to caring for people during some of the most vulnerable times in their lives, and I also believe in the principles of life coaching and personal development to support my patients.

I began my journey in long-term care shortly after graduating from high school, where I discovered my passion for nursing and the importance of compassionate, respectful care. I completed the Health Care Aide program at NorQuest College and worked as an HCA for four years. This experience shaped my understanding of patient-centered care, emphasizing empathy, dignity, and teamwork in healthcare.

I later achieved my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN), graduating with distinction and receiving academic scholarships, including the Jason Lang Scholarship. I then joined the Labour and Delivery team at the Royal Alexandra Hospital, where I spent many years supporting women and families through both routine and complex births. This work ignited my lasting passion for women’s health and family-centered care. As a parent myself, I bring both professional experience and personal understanding to the care of individuals and families during important life transitions. In my final five years in Labour and Delivery, I served as an Assistant Head Nurse, focusing on supporting staff, fostering a positive team environment, and ensuring safe, high-quality care.

Through my clinical experience, I developed a strong appreciation for the importance of primary prevention, early intervention, and continuity of care. This perspective inspired me to pursue the Master of Nursing – Nurse Practitioner (Family/All Ages) program at Athabasca University, which I completed in December 2025. I am proud to have successfully completed this program, allowing me to expand my nursing career and provide comprehensive care across the lifespan.

During my Nurse Practitioner training, I gained invaluable experience in busy primary care clinics, managing a wide range of acute and chronic health concerns. Building on my background in Labour and Delivery and my ongoing interest in women’s health, I pursued additional specialty training and clinical experience within obstetrics and gynecology settings, focusing on women’s health across different stages of life. Additionally, I am currently completing a Menopause Management certification course accredited by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC).

I currently practice at Jasper Place Wellness Centre, where I work with individuals and families facing complex medical and social challenges. I am particularly committed to supporting vulnerable and underserved populations. My approach to care is grounded in compassion, respect, and a belief that everyone deserves access to thoughtful, equitable healthcare. I also integrate concepts of personal development into my practice to empower my patients.

I remain dedicated to ongoing learning, collaboration, and providing care that makes a meaningful difference in the lives of the people and communities I serve.
