Compassionate nursing student dedicated to patient care and support.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated nursing student with a strong foundation in patient care, currently pursuing my LPN certification. My education at Montgomery College and Towson University has equipped me with essential skills in health assessment, medication administration, and effective communication. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am committed to providing compassionate care to diverse patient populations.
Throughout my clinical experiences at various healthcare facilities, including MedStar Montgomery Hospital and Sheppard Pratt Hospital, I have honed my abilities in wound care, vital sign assessments, and patient education. My internship at John Hopkins Patient Access allowed me to develop training materials and ensure compliance with healthcare regulations, further enhancing my organizational and leadership skills.
As I continue my journey in nursing, I am eager to contribute to a healthcare team that values collaboration and patient-centered care. I believe in fostering strong relationships with patients and their families, ensuring they receive the highest quality of support during their healthcare journey.
