What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to further develop my leadership skills while continuing to provide exceptional patient care in a supportive environment.

I am an Assistant Nurse Manager and Clinical Nurse with a strong commitment to providing quality patient care. Currently, I serve as the Assistant Nurse Manager for a 21-bed critical care unit at Prisma Health Baptist, where I lead a team of 50 employees. My role involves managing unit scheduling, performing biweekly payroll, and conducting monthly audits to ensure the highest standards of patient safety and care quality.

Throughout my nursing career, I have demonstrated my ability to adapt to various working environments and patient populations. I have experience as a charge nurse, where I provided direct patient care and played a key role in onboarding and training new staff. My dedication to fostering a positive workplace culture has been recognized through my involvement in the Unit-Based Council and receiving the Nursing Excellence Award in May 2023.
