Experienced registered nurse with a focus on patient care and management.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Registered Nurse with 15 years of experience in med/surg acute care, preoperative/post-operative surgical care, and hospice. My journey has equipped me with a proven track record in patient care, medication administration, and vital signs monitoring. I am adept at utilizing electronic health record technologies and am committed to delivering compassionate care, particularly in managed care settings.
Currently, I work at UPMC Hamot Surgery Center, where I conduct thorough patient assessments and implement individualized care plans. My role involves collaborating with care teams to optimize patient care delivery and ensuring compliance with HIPAA and organizational protocols. I have also managed complex cases as a Hospice Case Manager, providing emotional support and education to patients and families, fostering resilience during difficult times.
As I seek to transition into a Nurse Consultant role, I am eager to leverage my extensive clinical experience and strong communication skills to make a meaningful impact in healthcare. I believe in the importance of patient education and care coordination, and I am passionate about improving patient outcomes through effective collaboration and support.
