Cody Branham
@codybranham
Licensed Practical Nurse and construction professional delivering safe, compassionate patient care with precision.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Licensed Practical Nurse focused on delivering consistent, high-quality care—passing medications, completing wound care and treatments, maintaining resident charting, and taking vitals and weights. In my current role, I work in a 60-bed nursing home and rehabilitation center with the goal of making sure every resident is taken care of to the best of my ability.
Alongside my nursing training and upcoming NCLEX timeline, I bring a long track record in safety-first, hands-on technical work—from Construction Technician II and Acting Supervisor responsibilities to electrician and scaffold/builder roles. I’m comfortable following strict regulations, coordinating day-to-day activities, reading and developing blueprints/spreadsheets, and supporting teams through training and clear communication.
