Brittany Erickson
Nurse
My name is Brittany Erickson. I am a nurse in the Sioux Falls area. Before I joined the Right At Home team I was a director of nursing for an assisted living center in Aberdeen for 5 years. I graduated from Lake Area Tech and have been in the nursing field for 15+ years most of it being in long term care. My husband Chad and I live in Tea with our 3 beautiful girls, Cali, Dani, and Gemi. My hobbies include carting around my kids to their activities in soccer, dance, and gymnastics, relaxing at home and my favorite thing to do is to cook and bake.
Patty
Chaplain
My name is Patty Larsen. I am a Chaplain with Right at Home. My previous work as a school counselor and hospital chaplain nurtured my passion for responding to the needs of the whole person. Life is a journey, and no one should feel alone as they make their way. I find it a great privilege to journey with and support others wherever they find themselves on the path of life. My own journey is shared with my husband Todd, our four children, their families, and many great friends. In my spare time I enjoy tending plants, tending souls, and tending grandchildren.
