What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a remote role in care coordination, case management, hospice triage, or patient support where I can apply my nursing, documentation, and patient-care experience.

I've delivered direct nursing care for the State of Louisiana Office for Citizens with DD since 2013, administering medications, monitoring vital signs, documenting care, and collaborating on individualized plans for people with developmental disabilities.

My background also includes hospice nursing and LPN case management, where I coordinated services, supported patients and families through end-of-life care, managed referrals, and educated families on care practices, medications, and symptom management.
