Janice Brothers

I am Janice Brothers, a relatively new member to TNA. I was an LPN for several years before returning to complete my BSN from Austin Peay University in 2022. In addition to being an RN, I am a holistic nurse coach in a holistic health practice. I received my Integrative Nurse Coach certification in 2023 and work at a Nurse Coach/Advocate at Graith Care Advocacy assisting clients with whatever they need whether it is guidance on natural medicine or assistance with extending the life of a loved one. I also serve as a substitute school nurse for the Williamson County school district. I serve as the co-chair of chapter 15 of the American Holistic Nurses Association and Director, Tennessee Nurses Association, District 15. I am very excited to be a member of TNA and look forward to many volunteer opportunities.

Tia Falls

Hi, my name is Tia Falls, and I am excited to become a new member of TNA. I have been a Registered Nurse (RN) for approximately 15 years. I received my BSN degree from Tennessee Technological University in 2007. From then on, I worked as an RN in several adult specialty areas, including orthopedics, med/surg, psych, the operating room, and urology. While in urology, I felt the tug of leadership while working as a lead urology oncology nurse. I returned to school and obtained my MSN degree in nursing leadership and management from King University in 2018. In 2021, I became the assistant nurse manager of the adult urology clinic. I worked in that capacity until I became the clinic nurse manager of the adult urology clinic in February 2023, where I am still working. I am currently completing my DNP in systems leadership, and I'm excited to graduate in the Fall of 2024!

I look forward to using the knowledge gained throughout my nursing career to continue advocating and caring for patients within my current practice area and broadening that into the community I live in daily as a TNA member.
