What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to utilize my respiratory therapy skills while promoting patient education and advocacy in a collaborative healthcare environment.

As a Registered Respiratory Therapist, I have developed a comprehensive skill set in therapy techniques, equipment, and protocols, particularly in critical care and long-term care settings. My experience includes working with various respiratory devices, such as CPAP, BIPAP, and ventilators, ensuring that patients receive the highest quality of care tailored to their individual needs.

At Banner Home Care, I have successfully managed home visits for patients requiring non-invasive ventilation and invasive therapies, documenting their progress and adjusting care plans as necessary. My role at Peoria Post Acute further honed my skills in administering medications, conducting ventilator checks, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to establish effective treatment plans. I am dedicated to advocating for patients and ensuring they have access to essential resources and services.

My background as a Lead Case Manager and Recruiter has equipped me with strong organizational and communication skills, allowing me to coordinate care effectively among healthcare providers. I am passionate about educating patients and their families about treatment options and facilitating their journey toward recovery. With a commitment to continuous improvement and patient advocacy, I strive to make a positive impact in the lives of those I serve.
