I'm currently delivering continuous assessment and triage-level care for high-acuity cardiac patients in the Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit at Makassed General Hospital. I interpret telemetry, cardiac monitors, and 12-lead ECGs, escalate deterioration through structured communication, and document care accurately in electronic health records.

I've built practical experience in vasoactive and inotropic medication titration, post-operative cardiac surgery monitoring, post-PCI recovery, central-line and chest-tube care, and cardiac equipment including temporary pacemakers and intra-aortic balloon pumps. I also educate patients and families in Arabic and English on cardiac conditions, medications, and post-discharge self-care.

Alongside bedside practice, I support nursing development as Staff Development Committee Secretary and represent early-career nurses through the International Council of Nurses. I'm pursuing remote and telehealth nursing opportunities where I can apply clinical assessment, patient education, virtual triage, and remote monitoring judgment.
