Meet Alexandra McLeod and Team at Nurse Next Door Orillia
Alexandra McLeod, our Regional Manager at Nurse Next Door Orillia, grew up in Barrie and is a Nipissing University graduate with 15 years of experience in education. She now applies that passion to supporting seniors and their families.
Alexandra's commitment to care stems from her personal experiences navigating the healthcare system as a child. This led her to understand the importance of reliable support during challenging times, whether it's for practical help, companionship, or professional nursing.
She leads with compassion and enthusiasm, fostering a team that treats clients like family and delivers the same level of care she would want for her own loved ones.
