About:
Amy Ethridge decided to become a nurse practitioner so she would have more
time to get to know and care for her patients. “I have known my
whole life that caring for and helping others gives me a feeling of purpose,”
said Amy. “Being a nurse practitioner gives me the chance to do
this on a daily basis and I love it.” Through her experience with
inpatient medical oncology, Amy quickly fell in love with caring for oncology
patients. “These patients are brave, strong and so appreciative,”
she said. “It is truly rewarding to care for oncology patients along
their journey.” Amy received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing
from Union University in Jackson, Tennessee, and her Master of Science
in Nursing from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. She chose to
practice at Good Samaritan so she could provide personalized care to her
local community, family and friends. She has joined the Hematology/Oncology
office of Drs. Mark Stutz and Cassandra Lacher. Amy and her husband, Keith,
live just outside Vincennes with their two sons. In her free time, she
enjoys spending time with her family, attending concerts, boating, going
for drives in their jeep, and trying new restaurants.
