Acouple of new businesses have moved into Ocotillo Plaza located at 11814 S. Foothills Blvd. in the Foothills. Southwestern Palliative Care Associates and SWPCA Medical Group Primary Care Clinic are located in Suite 1.

The new primary care provider is Kristine Stevens, an adult-gerontology nurse practitioner. She specializes in adult healthcare and gerontology, but she can see patients as young as age 13, with a focus on adults 18 and older.

Stevens is accepting patients in the new clinic on Thursdays and Fridays. For an appointment in the Foothills location, call 928248-4738. Home visits are also made for homebound patients. Call 928- 248-4734 to schedule.

This is SWPCA’s second location. The first location is located at 1950 W. 3rd St. in Yuma.

This month owner/provider Frances Davison celebrated the company’s fifth anniversary. Davison became a registered nurse in 2003 and worked at Yuma Regional Medical Center until 2012. She became

an internal medicine nurse practitioner in 2011 and worked as a nurse practitioner for Hospice of Yuma from 2012 to 2013.

Davison started an independent practice for homebased palliative care in 2013 and hospice in 2018. She opened the Yuma primary

care location in 2020.

Her philosophy, according to an interview with Health Connections, a publication of the Yuma Sun, is “to be of service to the Yuma community, to be Jesus’ hands and feet, providing love, care and compassion to all. There

are no U-Hauls going to Heaven, so I want to spend the resources I have been blessed with to make a difference in people’s lives.”

Also in the Ocotillo Plaza building is AZ Natural Healing, located at 11814 S. Foothills Blvd., Suite
