Peter Abraham, BSN, RN, embodies more than just experience as a nurse; he truly cares about advocating for nurses, caregivers, families, and patients during their learning, growth, and well-being journeys. With a diverse background in nursing that includes cardiology and medical-surgical care, he has the privilege of supervising an amazing team of nurses and support staff in long-term care, rehabilitation, rural hospice, and palliative care as a case manager and admissions nurse.

Peter’s heartfelt desire to help others shines far beyond his physical presence. Through his valuable contributions at CompassionCrossing.Info, he pens inspiring articles designed to uplift caregivers, family members, and fellow nurses navigating end-of-life care. His books can be found on Amazon. Peter’s unwavering commitment to supporting others, all stemming from his deep love for Christ Jesus, truly serves as a wonderful source of encouragement for everyone he meets.

His dedication to compassionate care led to the establishment of the Peter Abraham Wound Care Scholarship, which offers education in wound care. This scholarship, associated with the theme of “Wound Care: Enhancing Healthcare for the Aging Population,” underscores Peter’s commitment to improving care for those in need.

When Peter is not working or writing, he finds joy in each moment spent with his wife, Laura, and their two rescue dogs, immersed in the inspiring beauty of central Kentucky, USA.
