What I'm looking for

I am looking for a supportive environment that values patient care and offers growth opportunities.

I am a dedicated Licensed Practical Nurse with extensive experience in providing high-quality nursing care to diverse patient populations. My journey in healthcare began with a Practical Nursing Diploma from Herzing University, and since then, I have honed my skills in various settings, including correctional facilities and medical centers. I am passionate about establishing patient treatment plans, monitoring symptoms, and collaborating with healthcare professionals to ensure optimal patient outcomes.

Throughout my career, I have successfully administered nursing care, performed wellness check-ups, and facilitated drug detox for inmates. My ability to communicate effectively with patients and their families has allowed me to provide not only medical support but also emotional guidance during challenging times. I take pride in maintaining accurate medical records and ensuring the safety and well-being of my patients.

As I continue to grow in my nursing career, I am eager to embrace new challenges and opportunities that allow me to further develop my skills and contribute positively to the healthcare community. I believe in the importance of compassionate care and strive to make a meaningful impact in the lives of those I serve.
