Annette Underhill

Hello CREST Families,

My name is Annette Underhill and I am your School Nurse. I am a Registered Nurse with 20 years of experience as a School Nurse. I am very excited to meet your student. I started at CREST in 2023. I love working with students and families. I understand that your student has unique healthcare needs, and I would like to partner with you in meeting your student’s needs while they are at school. For me to care for your student in the best way possible, I would like as much information about your student’s needs and medical care so that we can work to develop the best plan for your student. Our clinic is ran by an RN and a Health Room Attendant, Cheryl Russell. Cheryl has six years of experience working in the CREST clinic and does an excellent job of getting to know each student in the school and their specific needs. We want to partner with you, the parent or guardian, to ensure that your student gets the best care possible while at our school. Please call us at any time to discuss your student’s needs or share information about your student.

Thank you,

Annette Underhill, RN, BSN
