Compassionate RN with extensive experience in patient care management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Registered Nurse with a strong background in various medical settings, including telemetry, orthopedics, neurology, and medical-surgical care. My journey in healthcare began as a Certified Nursing Assistant, where I developed a passion for patient care that led me to pursue my LPN and eventually my RN. I have worked in diverse roles, from charge nurse to care manager, which has equipped me with a comprehensive understanding of patient needs and healthcare protocols.
Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my commitment to excellence in patient care. I have successfully managed patient appointments, administered IV medications, and provided education on disease management. My experience at the COVID-19 Vaccination Center further honed my skills in patient communication and care coordination. I am proud to have contributed to the health and well-being of my community during challenging times.
As I continue to grow in my nursing career, I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences to make a positive impact in a healthcare setting that values compassion, teamwork, and continuous learning. I am committed to providing high-quality care and advocating for my patients' needs.
