REVIEW USMeet Jenna Lathom, RN
Jenna Lathom is a dedicated Registered Nurse from Murrysville, PA, whose career spans both traditional healthcare and specialized medical aesthetics. She graduated magna cum laude from Carlow University in 2009 with a BSN degree while distinguishing herself as a scholar-athlete in soccer.
Her nursing career began at UPMC Magee Women's Hospital as a Certified Nursing Assistant before advancing to roles in cardiac and neurovascular intensive care at UPMC Presbyterian. In these positions, she provided critical care to patients, collaborated with multidisciplinary teams, and developed expertise in complex medical procedures and patient education.
In 2020, Jenna made the thoughtful decision to temporarily step back from her full-time career to focus on her family following the loss of her first-born daughter in 2019. During this period, she has remained actively involved in charitable work, particularly with an organization called "friends to friends," which creates inclusive social environments for children and adults with and without disabilities. This commitment to community service, which began when she was eleven years old, remains a cornerstone of her personal and professional identity.
Jenna has recent experience as a Laser Hair Removal Specialist, where she combined her medical expertise with aesthetic services. She is certified in injectable fillers and botox, showcasing her commitment to expanding her professional capabilities.
