Biography

“I enjoy helping patients address their health care needs through compassion, management, education, advocacy and support. I believe we must work collaboratively as a whole to help improve the health of our community and our world.”

Lacossade is a board-certified adult-gerontology acute care nurse practitioner.

From an early age, she observed family members manage chronic cardiac conditions. This inspired her to learn how to better manage, educate and prevent complications associated with cardiac health.

Lacossade received her master’s degree in nursing and Doctor of Nursing Practice at the University of Connecticut. Her doctoral project focused on decreasing heart failure readmission rates with the implementation of an outpatient IV diuretic clinic.

Originally from Connecticut, Lacossade enjoys traveling to new places and countries. She likes trying new foods, spending time with family and mentoring. Her family is originally from Haiti, which probably inspired her love for warm weather and the beach.
