Since 2006, Chy Mitchell has been the CEO and a registered nurse at The Lechtim Community Services. This organization serves the east and west Harlem elder population, a mostly underprivileged area. “Over my 30 years of being a registered nurse, I do see the importance of having nurse case managers. And many people don’t take advantage of nurse case managers, and it’s mostly because people don’t know who we are and what we exactly do,” said Chy Mitchell.
