Daviess County Health Department

Hi, I'm RaCail. I'm a registered nurse and administrator of DCHD. I've enjoyed working for the health department and serving Daviess County for the last three years. I have a passion for healthcare and I'm excited to settle in as the administrator. My husband, Cody, and I have three children. Both my husband and I are Daviess County natives and I'm thrilled to be serving the community in which we call home.

Hi, I'm Amber. I'm the Office Manager at DCHD. My husband, Jason, and I are residents of Daviess County where we raise our 3 daughters. My husband farms crop and cattle and we enjoy attending rodeos and watching our girls compete.  I'm thrilled to be serving our local county and the county my family, and extended family calls home. 

Hi, I'm Melanie-I have lived in the area almost my whole life. I have 3 daughters and 3 granddaughters. I have a Bachelors Degree in Health Information Management and I am RHIA certified. I have worked in healthcare for over 24 years and I'm excited to be serving Daviess County.

I have been a Registered Nurse for 8 years, and started with the Health Department in October 2020. I am the Maternal Child Health (MCH) and Child Care Health Consultation (CCHC) nurse. I am married and have 2 children. 

Hi, I'm Colt. I've been the Environmental Public Health Specialist for Daviess County since 2014. I'm also the Environmental Public Health Specialist for Harrison County and Grundy County. I'm a lifelong resident of Daviess County. I enjoy life on the farm with my wife, Devyn. I look forward to serving our growing community. 

I grew up in Pattonsburg, Missouri with a population of 323 at that time.  I graduated college from William Jewell with my  Bachelors of Science in Nursing.  I have lived in Hamilton for the past 4 years and have 2 beautiful daughters.  I previously worked in a hospital setting for 12+ years specializing in cardiology. I'm excited to serve the Daviess County and the place I called 'home' throughout my childhood.

Hello, I am Kim Conkling, registered nurse with 17 years of emergency services, and ER experience. I grew up and continue to reside in Daviess County. I am very active in our community. I like taking pictures and coaching youth sports. My husband, Kyle, and I have 2 children, Kaydence and Karter. I look forward to serving Daviess County as your VFC/Immunization Coordinator, WIC CPA, BLS Trainor and Car Seat Coordinator.

I received my BS in Agriculture from Iowa State University and my RN from NCMC. I am currently the nurse at Winston, Pattonsburg, and Jamesport schools.  I love building relationships with the kids and helping them stay healthy at school.  Public health nursing is very fulfilling-especially during this Covid-19 pandemic.  My husband farms so I get to play midwife to our commercial cow herd.  We have a daughter who loves showing cattle and her horse and a son that loves to help dad with the tractors.
