Faculty: Erin Van Heirseele, MBA, BSN, RN, Executive Director, Landmark Health
Erin Van Heirseele is an executive director with a home-based medical care program in the Midwest where she leads an interdisciplinary team to provide high-quality, chronic care management for the Medicare Advantage population. A registered nurse by background, she has spent almost two decades working in home-based care in a variety of roles including case manager, education coordinator, and leadership. She firmly believes home-based care is a specialty environment that requires employees with a skill set that includes the ability to function with a high-level of independence and flexibility to adapt to the unique challenges of providing care in a patient’s home.

Erin received her bachelors in nursing from the University of Minnesota – Twin Cities and her masters in business administration in Leadership and Change from the College of St. Scholastica. She is currently in a doctoral program where her area of interest is studying the lived experience of nurses with crossing professional boundaries. Erin lives in St. Paul, Minnesota with her husband and three dogs.
