About Felicia

Felicia Henry is a board-certified Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner with more than 20 years of experience in the healthcare field. Inspired by a family legacy of nursing through her mother, grandmother, and aunts, she began her career as a Certified Nursing Assistant before advancing to Licensed Practical Nurse and pursuing additional clinical education. Her professional journey has included rehabilitation, hospice, med-surg, corrections, home health, critical care, and emergency care, giving her a broad and well-rounded perspective on patient needs.

Felicia currently serves as a Registered Nurse with Emory Healthcare, where her experience includes critical care, telemedicine, and acute care. Her clinical background encompasses ICU and emergency department environments, as well as virtual critical care, where she supports patient admissions, discharges, and acute-care needs. She has also held leadership responsibilities, including managing a psychiatric unit in a correctional setting, and has developed expertise in team building and collaborative patient care.

Committed to lifelong learning and professional excellence, Felicia earned a Master of Science in Nursing Leadership and Management from Capella University and a postgraduate degree in Adult-Gerontology Acute Care Nurse Practitioner studies from Grand Canyon University. In 2013, she was nominated for membership in the International Honor Society in Nursing in recognition of her clinical contributions, including work supporting stroke-unit certification. Her career reflects perseverance, continuous learning, compassionate care, and a commitment to advancing patient outcomes across traditional and virtual healthcare settings.

Her Interview

Ten minutes with Felicia

01What do you attribute your success to?

I attribute my success to my belief that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. I’ve always been willing to learn, put in the effort, and find the resources I need to grow. When I encounter something new, I read articles, speak with people who have already achieved it, watch videos, and actively seek out knowledge and different perspectives. I believe that with determination, curiosity, and a willingness to learn, there are very few things I cannot accomplish.

02What’s the best career advice you’ve ever received?

The best career advice I’ve ever received is that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. As long as I believe in myself, stay committed, and remain willing to learn, I can overcome challenges and achieve my goals. It may take time, but with persistence, patience, and determination, I know that I will eventually learn what I need to learn and get the job done.

03What values are most important to you in your work and personal life?

The values that are most important to me are appreciating the little things, making time for the people I love, and creating meaningful memories. I believe in staying young at heart and embracing my inner “big kid” by enjoying life and making the most of everyday moments. Above all, being a mother is my number-one priority. Taking care of my son, being present for him, and spending quality time together are the things I value most. Ultimately, it’s about family, love, connection, and making memories that we can cherish for years to come.
