What I'm looking for

I am looking for a remote nursing position that allows me to utilize my skills in patient care and education while promoting a collaborative and supportive work environment.

I am a dedicated Registered Nurse with over five years of experience in both hospital and outpatient settings. My journey in nursing has been marked by a commitment to compassionate patient care and a strong focus on detail. I have honed my skills in patient assessment, care coordination, and interdisciplinary collaboration, which I believe are essential for delivering high-quality healthcare.

Currently, I am seeking to transition into a remote nursing role where I can leverage my expertise in EMR documentation, telephonic triage, and patient education. I am adept at working independently while maintaining high standards of care, especially in virtual environments. My passion for utilizing technology to enhance patient care drives my continuous learning and adaptability in this evolving field.
