What I'm looking for

I’m seeking to apply my frontline clinical judgment and quality-improvement experience in a Clinical Documentation Integrity (CDI) Specialist role.

At Long Island Jewish Valley Stream, I interpret complex clinical indicators in ICU/CCU care to recognize changes in patient acuity. I maintain accurate EMR documentation and communicate clinical findings with providers.

I participate in multidisciplinary rounds and quality-improvement initiatives, and serve as Principal Investigator for the LIJVS PAUSE Study. My experience also includes telemetry care and work as a telemetry-unit CAUTI champion.
