Rachel Woods graduated with her Associate Degree in Nursing (ADN) from Bethel University in 2005 and began her nursing career the same year. She later earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from Bethel in 2008. She most recently completed her Master of Science in Nursing (MSN) with a Family Practice track at Chamberlain University in March 2024.

Rachel’s favorite thing about Woodlawn is, “I love the size and warmth of Woodlawn. I worked at Woodlawn from about 2003 to 2009, and it has been wonderful to see some familiar faces since I’ve been back!”

With a passion for her specialty, she enjoys the variety of ages, problems, and interventions she encounters daily. Rachel values the opportunity to learn, educate, and support patients in creating better health strategies.

Outside of work, she loves cooking, reading, gardening, and camping. She first joined Woodlawn in 2003 and is thrilled to have returned in 2024 to continue making a difference in the community she cherishes.
