🏆 Outstanding Community Health Award Nominee: Rachael Peterson, MSN, RN
Rachael Peterson, MSN, RN, CEO and Owner of Kindred Souls of Wyoming, LLC, saw a need for more accessible home health services in Northeast Wyoming and took action by creating Kindred Souls of Wyoming—a resource helping elderly, homebound, and rural residents receive professional, compassionate care in the comfort of their own homes.
Her leadership has strengthened healthcare access in our community, especially during times of need. When more than 50 local clients suddenly needed a new home health provider, Rachael and her team stepped up to ensure continuity of care, coordinating services quickly while keeping patients’ safety and well-being at the center.
Beyond her work in healthcare, Rachael serves her community through the Gillette Rotary Club and continues to advocate for individuals and families who need support. Her commitment to lifelong learning is reflected in her Master of Science in Nursing, continued professional education, and dedication to improving home-based care throughout Wyoming.
