About Me

Hi, I’m Van Cacho — a U.S.-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, business owner, corporate leader, and full-time mom. I created Van the NP to guide nursing students, healthcare professionals, and aspiring entrepreneurs through every stage of their journey — from student nurse to licensed professional, and even business owner.

About Me

From Student Nurse to Multi-Passionate Entrepreneur

My nursing journey began like many others — with late nights, self-doubt, and a dream to make a difference. Over time, that dream evolved. Today, I lead multiple healthcare and wellness ventures while mentoring future NPs and professionals around the world.

I currently serve as the Vice President of EMR and IT Development at a national wound care organization, where I manage electronic medical record innovations, system training, and compliance workflows. My clinical and tech experience has allowed me to bridge the gap between frontline care and backend operations.

What I’m Working on Now

I’m proud to run several growing ventures that bring together my passion for health, healing, and community:

👩🏽‍🏫 Nursing Mentorship & Digital Resources – From pharmacology cheat sheets to NCLEX prep tips, I offer tools that help nursing students and new grads succeed — without the overwhelm.

🌿 Sakari Wellness & Physical Therapy – A premier wellness and physical therapy clinic based in Koronadal City, Philippines, offering U.S.-standard treatments and holistic spa services.

Sakari Golf Range – A community golf driving range and casual food hub in Mindanao designed to promote fun, fitness, and family connection.

💼 Sakari Virtual Assistant Agency – A trusted provider of HIPAA-compliant virtual assistants, nurses, and admin support for international companies.

My Mission

Whether you’re a student nurse looking for clarity, a clinician trying to grow, or a mom juggling everything and still trying to dream — you belong here.

My goal is to make the nursing and business world more accessible, especially for women and underrepresented voices. I believe in:

Encouraging nurses and moms to reclaim their time, purpose, and power

Supporting students with simple, evidence-based study tools

Building accessible wellness and PT services in the Philippines

Creating meaningful work opportunities through virtual staffing
