What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration, patient advocacy, and continuous learning.

I am a dedicated Nurse Case Manager with over five years of experience in providing exceptional patient care and facilitating smooth transitions for patients following discharge from medical facilities. My commitment to patient welfare drives me to develop individualized care plans and advocate for patients' rights and preferences. I believe in the importance of collaboration with health plans, leadership, and department coordinators to achieve the highest quality of patient satisfaction.

Throughout my career, I have successfully streamlined discharge planning processes, educated patients and families on available community resources, and optimized resource utilization while maintaining quality care. My experience includes working with interdisciplinary healthcare teams to enhance patient care and outcomes. I pride myself on my ability to communicate effectively with patients and their families, fostering trust and open communication, which is essential in the healthcare environment.

My clinical expertise spans various settings, including home health, pre-operative care, and neuro nursing. I continuously seek to improve my skills and knowledge through ongoing education and training, ensuring that I stay current with best practices in nursing. I am passionate about providing high-quality care that empowers patients to actively participate in their healthcare decisions.
