What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an RN role where I can use my phone triage, teaching, and documentation skills to support patients and families—especially in pediatrics. I want a team that values clear protocols, empathy, and consistent follow-through.

I’m a Registered Nurse with 38 years of multifaceted nursing experience, starting at 21 and working across hospital chemo/oncology, ICU agency support, home health, hospice, school nursing, and physician office settings. I’m flexible, honest, extremely personable, and I genuinely enjoy helping patients and families feel supported and confident.

Since April 2023, I’ve been a Registered Nurse/Triage Nurse at WUCA South County Pediatrics, triaging calls from patients, parents, and physicians, sending doctor messages, and responding to patients. I coordinate referrals, orders, prescription refills, and insurance prior authorizations, using Epic along with Microsoft/Google systems, while documenting every interaction in electronic health records.

For years, I’ve served as a School Nurse with Fox C 6, managing student assessments (asthma, diabetes, injuries), maintaining health records (immunizations, 504 plans, IEPs), and creating and maintaining seizure plans, asthma plans, and food allergy action plans. I administer medications, complete screenings (vision, hearing, scoliosis), and document care in the Tyler health system—always keeping communication strong with families and community resources.
