April Vesco

Nurse Manager

Hello! my name is April Vesco. I love working alongside our amazing medical volunteers serving our clients, and facilitate the medical needs of the clinic. I started at NorthState as a volunteer, and fell in love with it. I am also an active labor and delivery nurse, and have held that position since 2005. I care for moms and babies in various stages of pregnancy, the birthing process, circulate the OR, and care for them postpartum. I have obtained an additional certification in obstetrics verifying expertise in this field. I love Jesus, and strive to serve His children well, helping them through some of their most vulnerable times in their lives. I have a passion for this population and am grateful I can use my experience to serve our clients. Aside from my jobs, I have spent the last 5 years running a farm with my family we call the Red Dirt Ranch. I also enjoy gardening and being outdoors in nature, be it hiking, fishing, or just soaking in the rays. I love spending time with my family, going to Bible study, and hanging out with my dogs!
