What I'm looking for

I seek patient-facing nursing roles where I can provide hands-on care, collaborate with clinical teams, support care plans, and deliver compassionate service in clinical, home, or correctional settings.

I am a Licensed Practical Nurse with over 30 years of customer-service and healthcare-related experience, recently graduating from Standard Healthcare Services College of Nursing. I provide direct patient care in clinical and correctional settings, performing assessments, medication administration, wound care, tube feeding, suctioning, and emergency interventions while maintaining accurate documentation and infection-control practices.

I bring strong interpersonal, time-management, and multi-tasking skills honed across home health, school-based care, COVID testing administration, transportation, and customer-service roles. I am motivated to maintain client satisfaction, support care-plan management, and collaborate effectively with RNs and multidisciplinary teams to improve patient outcomes.
