N.C., AdventHealth Hendersonville Welcomes New Behavioral Health Nurse Practitioner

Jul. 8, 2021; HENDERSONVILLE, N.C. – AdventHealth Hendersonville is excited to welcome Eric Adrignola, PMHNP to his new role as a nurse practitioner at AdventHealth Medical Group Psychiatry at Medical Office Building.*

Eric earned his associate degree in nursing from Blue Ridge Community College in Flat Rock and his bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Texas in Arlington, TX.

In his more than 10 years at AdventHealth, Eric has provided exceptional care to the patients through every nursing role on the Geriatric and Women’s Behavioral Health Units. “My career here has been directly influenced by my coworkers as well as my patients,” shares Eric. “When I advanced in my career, it was possible only by learning from others. It is those experiences which have led me to where I am now.”

In his new role as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, he is looking forward to expanding the whole-person care he can provide to patients.

He explains, “Mental health is often looked at as separate from physical health. I hope to assist others in better understanding the ways mental and physical health are linked.”

“Eric has been an incredible member of the care team, living out our service standard to keep people safe and help them feel whole,” said Christy Sneller, MBA, AdventHealth Hendersonville Chief Practice Officer & VP of Physician Services. “It has been an honor to support his call to expand his skills and move into this new role that will expand his ability to care for behavioral health patients with his uncommon compassion.”
