Leigh Weihs, MSN, MPH, FNP is a family nurse practitioner working with the Baltimore County Public Schools in their school-based health center program since 2015. In addition to her experience with BCPS, she has worked in both pediatric and family private practices. Prior to becoming a nurse and nurse practitioner, Leigh was a Presidential Management Intern, spending time on the Hill, in the budget office of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and within a Medicaid HMO. She then worked for HSS as a policy analyst within the Bureau of Primary Health Care (BPHC) where she advocated for community health centers and other HRSA programs as states developed their Medicaid managed care programs. She also worked as an analyst with the Healthcare for the Homeless Program. Following this policy work in DC, she became a nurse practitioner so that she could continue her public health efforts in a more hands-on manner and feels that her work with SBHCs is the perfect fit for combining her interests in public health and nursing. Lastly, Leigh is a member of the MD Association of School Nurses and hopes to bring the views and interests of MASN to MASBHC.
