What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an RN role where I can deliver compassionate, high-acuity care while strengthening care coordination—monitoring vitals, advocating for patients, and supporting safe infection-control practices with a team that values clear communication.

I’m a Registered Nurse with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and Nursing, bringing a practical, evidence-based approach to bedside care and coordinated treatment planning. I focus on monitoring critical patient indicators, supporting patients emotionally, and making informed judgments using real-time observations.

In Labor and Delivery, I managed and prioritized diverse patient situations while monitoring mother and baby during labor, assessing contraction and FHR patterns, and supporting high-risk care before, during, and after delivery. I administered medications, handled emergent situations calmly, assisted with c-sections, provided neonatal resuscitation when required, and supported breastfeeding education and postpartum recovery.

My approach is both clinically precise and process-driven. I consistently comply with HIPAA standards and policy compliance, implement infection control measures, and provide actionable recommendations through strong collaboration with multi-disciplinary teams—translating clinical details into clear updates for providers.

More recently, in an office-based role at PartnerMD, I expanded my coordination strengths through patient intake, processing medical records, triaging patient phone calls, and managing medication refills. I also supported prior authorizations and communication with specialists, insurance, and local hospitals to help ensure timely, quality care.
