Berit Zetterberg, R.N. - P.A.
Registered Nurse

I have many, many years of nursing as a Registered Nurse. My background as a Float Nurse gave me an opportunity to be admitted to the Grand Forks Medical School in the Assistant Physician's Class.

The training was very hard but I learned a great deal. As I love people and medicine this combination has been a perfect fit for me. I hope to continue to be of help to   people.

I believe that quality care should be the number one priority for anyone working in the healthcare field.  Being treated with respect and dignity are traits that I would like shown to me when I reach the age of needing a little assistance. My caring heart and level of understanding your needs will help me help you find the quality of care you’re looking for in a caregiver.  My loving wife has shown me ways of being a better person and a more caring individual than I ever thought possible and now as the Southern Oregon Supervisor for Safe Haven Care, I would like to show you those same qualities that my wife has instilled in me.  

Danika Bischoff
Representative

Danika Bischoff is a long-time resident of the Rogue Valley. Her growing-up years were enriched by her close relationship with her grandparents and great-grandparents. She has always been comfortable relating to all age groups, and to people with differing ability levels. During her teen years she was active in her church youth group and 4-H horse club.

Danika strayed from Medford's natural beauty only long enough to attend college in the Napa Valley, where she met her husband of 15 years, Monte Bischoff. After college Danika was employed by a long distance telephone company, where she worked her way up from order entry to outside sales and customer service. For several years she worked part time for Monte's company, Payroll Specialties, while concentrating on parenting.

She is a currently a member of the school board of her daughter's school, which includes fundraising and public relations. She enjoys spending time volunteering at her church. Her interests and hobbies tend to center around family life. Hiking, camping, snow-mobiling and traveling to fun places are favorite activities. Her two daughters have inherited her passion for animals. Their menagerie includes: a horse, a dog, 3 cats, a hamster, and fish in the pond and the fish bowl.

Danika is a caring and compassionate person whom others gravitate to for emotional support and common sense counsel.
