What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my nursing skills in a supportive environment, with opportunities for professional growth and patient interaction.

I am a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) with a strong background in healthcare, dedicated to providing exceptional patient care and support. My experience spans various healthcare settings, including pediatrics, dialysis, and emergency departments, where I have honed my skills in patient intake, vital signs monitoring, and medication administration. I pride myself on my ability to communicate effectively with both patients and healthcare teams, ensuring a seamless flow of information and care.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to patient safety and comfort, performing procedures such as catheterizations, wound care, and IV fluid management with precision and care. My educational journey, including my ongoing studies at Excelsior University, has equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in the nursing field. I am fluent in both Spanish and English, allowing me to connect with a diverse patient population.
