Metta Johnson, President and Certified Care Manager, has over 25 years of experience serving clients with serious, chronic and terminal illnesses. Metta has extensive clinical expertise in cancer, palliative care and gerontology.
Her inspiration to enter nursing was her parents’ own cancer experiences. After raising three children she attended nursing school with the goal of helping people gain control of their healthcare experience. Metta graduated Magna Cum Laude from Georgia State University School of Nursing in 1987. She worked in oncology a number of years helping patients understand their illnesses and their options.
In 1991, Metta, her husband Clyde, and a nursing colleague founded the first inpatient hospice facility in Atlanta – growing the program to one of the largest in the city. Metta has excellent rapport with many of the city’s leading physicians and healthcare facilities.
