I deliver high-acuity oncology nursing and remote care coordination for complex patient populations.

Message

I've delivered high-acuity medical oncology care at Stony Brook University Hospital and coordinated complex long-term care remotely at Centers Plan for Healthy Living.

As a Remote Nurse Care Manager, I managed monthly caseloads of 120–125 MLTC members, conducted telephonic evaluations, developed individualized care plans, and coordinated aide services, therapies, medical supplies, referrals, and authorizations. I partnered with hospital teams, primary care providers, specialists, caregivers, and utilization management teams to support safe discharges, medication reconciliation, and care-plan goals.

At Stony Brook University Hospital, I provided direct care for medical oncology patients, including chemotherapy and immunotherapy administration, central-line management, IV therapy, blood transfusions, enteral and parenteral nutrition, wound care, and tracheostomy care.

I'm a New York State Registered Professional Nurse, Chemotherapy/Immunotherapy Provider Certified, and Certified Breast Health Educator. I also served as a charge nurse and preceptor for new graduate nurses while maintaining compassionate, thorough, patient-centered care.
