Meet the SPLIT Rock Nurse: Abigail Falconer
We would like to introduce you to Registered Nurse Abigail Falconer, who is the School Nurse at East Hill Elementary School.
She is a St. Joseph’s College of Nursing graduate, where she received her Associates of Science degree in Nursing in 2017. She also received her Bachelors of Arts degree in English Literature/Education from Le Moyne College in 2012.
She started her nursing career at Upstate Golisano’s Children’s Hospital in the pediatric medical-surgical unit for a few years. She then transferred to the Pediatric Ambulatory Hematology/Oncology clinic, working as an infusion nurse.
Falconer grew up in the Fairmount area and now lives in Camillus with her husband, Sean, and their three kids: Myles (6), George (5) and Maggie (3).
In her spare time, she loves being outdoors with her family, either finding local hikes or new playgrounds to explore. Having always loved running, she is now training for her first triathlon, scheduled for June 2025.
