For her own peace of mind, Kairis recently devised a plan for avoiding problems.
CNN: Nurses dodge bullets to provide care
Kairis recalled a recent visit to care for a baby who was quite ill.
The night before she does home visits, Kairis studies her patient roster and the neighborhoods where patients live.
Kairis said she ended up being ushered in and out of the home by a group of police officers.
Changing course means patients in relatively better health may have their care delayed for a few hours, said Kairis.
"Sometimes it's unnerving just to get out of the car, " said Kairis.
"We hit the worst areas earlier in the day, then not-so-bad areas later in the day, " said Kairis, who has been a nurse for six years.
