Krista Longmore, FNP-BC

Krista's affiliation with healthcare began at South University, Tampa, where she received an Associate's Degree in Health Science in 2012, graduating with summa cum laude academic honors. In 2014, she furthered her education at the University of South Florida, where she obtained a Bachelor’s Degree in Nursing and was invited to the National Nursing Honor Society, Sigma Theta Tau.

Krista’s first step in the nursing profession was in medical and surgical oncology. She then spent four years in critical care nursing, starting in the ICU and later transitioning to ERs, where she was promoted to the Charge Nurse position. Her leadership skills and medical knowledge were refined as she trained and supervised other nurses in the provision of quality care to patients.

Eager to continue her advancement in medicine, she worked toward completing her Master of Science in Nursing as a Family Nurse Practitioner, all while continuing to work at the hospital. After completing her studies in 2022, she went on to receive board certifications from both the American Association of Nurse Practitioners as well as the American Nurses Credentialing Center. Her background in critical care shaped Krista into a provider with a heart to advocate for all problems as serious as her own, showing empathy, understanding, and a genuine desire to improve lives.

Krista currently contributes to further Healthy Home Primary Care’s efforts to bring high-quality patient care to rehabilitation facilities and nursing homes in Sun City Center.
