What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values teamwork and offers opportunities for professional growth in wound care.

I am a highly accomplished and results-oriented Licensed Practical Nurse with extensive experience in adult and geriatric wound care management across diverse healthcare settings. My expertise lies in developing and implementing effective wound prevention and treatment protocols, ensuring comprehensive documentation and regulatory compliance. I pride myself on my proactive communication skills and exceptional time management abilities, which allow me to effectively supervise and guide nursing teams.

Throughout my career, I have successfully led wound care programs, overseeing all aspects of wound management and collaborating with interdisciplinary teams to develop individualized Plans of Care. My commitment to patient education and staff training has significantly improved outcomes, as evidenced by the decrease in acquired pressure injuries at my previous facilities. I am eager to leverage my extensive wound care experience to contribute to organizational excellence and enhance patient care.
