Jeanne Constable
Clinical Manager/Bariatric Coordinator at Jupiter Medical Center where I have worked since 1982. I have been in the GI lab here since 1989 and a member of SGNA since 1991. I obtained certification in 1992. GI is my passion and I was instrumental in starting the local SGNA Region 69 , Palm Beach Treasure Coast, in 2009. I joined SGNA to learn ever evolving GI wisdom to share with my patients and team. There is always new technology and procedures so it is an exciting area for a nurse to expand her/his horizons. I love the camaraderie and networking that SGNA has allowed me to do and have many lifelong friends because of this. I especially love attending the seminars and State and National meetings that SGNA provides us. Those close to me know that I love my four-legged furr babies (cats) Yogi and Cobi, twin brothers. My other two favorite things are butterflies and purple (the actual color) . I have lived in Jupiter the last 40 years but originally came from Massachusetts.

My name is Cindy Dedick, I work at Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center. I am a CGRN. I have been an Endoscopy nurse since 1990 — pretty “vintage”!
A position opened in Endoscopy and I decided to apply and I found my favorite job. Endoscopy is a great place to work, so many positive aspects, like working as a team with other nurses and physicians, and focusing on patient care. I joined SGNA to learn more about GI nursing and meet other nurses in Endosopy that could share their expertise. I have learned so much and continue to learn. I also became certified in Gastroenterology Nursing.
Fun fact — I love to play Scrabble! Best game in the world.

Hi everyone! My name is Amy Higgins and I am a recent addition to the board. I joined SGNA last year and I became a board member this past February!
I have been a registered nurse for 18 years. I worked in the emergency department for 16 years before making the jump to GI. I am originally from WPB, but I was a travel nurse for many years, so I have been fortunate to have lived in Colorado, California, Hawaii, Alaska, and Washington! I moved back to Florida 2 years ago and I currently work at Jupiter Medical Center.
I joined the SGNA because I feel it is important to support our speciality in order to elevate our profession and help make positive changes. I am grateful for the opportunity to be part of the Palm Beach Treasure Coast Region SGNA.
In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family and doing anything outdoors, especially bike riding. I have a golden retriever puppy, Daisy, on the way, so most of my time will soon include her! 🐶 Also, I recently took up learning to play the guitar and I have the callouses to prove it! 😉
