Good care starts with
seeing the whole person.

I’m Jansen Estacio, BSN, RN, CNN—a Clinical Nurse III at Stanford Health Care with a practice rooted in nephrology, acute care, and patient-centered nursing. I care for adults with complex renal conditions across hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, continuous renal replacement therapy, vascular access management, and transplant care.

My path from dialysis technician to registered nurse shapes the way I work: attentive to the details of treatment, grounded in practical problem solving, and committed to the people behind every clinical decision. I value safe, evidence-based, culturally responsive care and the collaboration it takes to deliver it.

Beyond the bedside, my interests span clinical leadership, quality improvement, education, research, and healthcare innovation. Through charge and resource nursing, shared governance, and clinical research involvement, I look for ways to strengthen both patient care and the experience of the team delivering it.

Watson’s Caring Science informs my approach to compassion, presence, and human connection. As a Doctor of Nursing Practice – Family Nurse Practitioner student at Samuel Merritt University, I’m building on my nephrology background toward a future in primary care, with anticipated program completion in 2027.
