In this episode of The Story Cottage Podcast, host Kirstin chats with Ashley Oaks, owner of KB Nursing and a registered nurse with more than 20 years of experience. Ashley shares her journey, passion for elder care, and how her concierge nursing model is changing the game for families and residents at Story Cottage. From medical coordination to emotional support, KB Nursing ensures residents receive holistic, personalized care with open communication at every step.


What Makes KB Nursing Unique?

KB Nursing isn’t your typical home health provider. Unlike short, task-based visits, KB offers consistent, relationship-focused support that wraps around the whole person. Whether it’s coordinating doctor visits or monitoring daily habits, the KB team acts as a constant presence in a resident’s care journey.

A Powerful Partnership with Story Cottage

At Story Cottage, caregivers provide daily living support—while KB Nursing handles the clinical side. Nurses visit several times a week, reviewing vital signs, assessments, and coordinating care with physicians and specialists. The seamless teamwork ensures every aspect of a resident’s well-being is accounted for.

Transparency and Peace of Mind for Families

KB Nursing utilizes Primary Record, a secure online platform, to provide real-time updates to families. From physical changes to emotional well-being, families are kept in the loop and never left guessing about their loved one’s care status. This level of transparency fosters trust and relieves stress.

A Nurse’s Perspective: Advocacy and Compassion

Whether it’s ensuring that a doctor returns a call or advocating during a care plan discussion, KB nurses use their training to ensure no detail is missed. Families feel supported, residents feel safe, and providers stay aligned—all thanks to a proactive, hands-on nursing model.
