Compassionate registered nurse dedicated to quality patient care.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated registered nurse with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Southern Connecticut State University, complemented by a minor in Psychology and Public Health. Since August 2023, I have been providing direct quality care to adult and geriatric patients at Yale New Haven Hospital, where I also serve as a charge nurse in a fast-paced medicine observation unit. My role involves telemetry monitoring, evaluating medical conditions, and managing multiple admissions, transfers, and discharges.
Prior to my current position, I worked as a Clinical Tech at Yale New Haven Hospital, where I assisted patients with daily living activities and collected vital data. My experience in the healthcare field is complemented by my strong communication skills and ability to effectively precept and orient new nurses. I am fluent in Spanish and pride myself on being client-oriented and result-driven, ensuring that every patient receives the best possible care.
