What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role that values strong patient-centered nursing and protocol-driven clinical research work. I want to use my GCP focus, assessments, documentation, and collaboration to deliver safe, high-quality study and patient care.

I’m a Clinical Research Nurse with hands-on experience coordinating clinical study activities including recruitment, consenting, participant reimbursement, and data collection. I interview participants for protocol eligibility, obtain informed consent, and ensure study requirements are met within Good Clinical Practice.

As a Registered Nurse, I provide comprehensive patient assessments and monitoring, communicate and collaborate with the healthcare team, and help develop individualized care plans. I educate patients and families on medications, surgeries, post-operative care, medical conditions, and discharge planning while managing wound care, monitoring for infection, and administering medications with attention to potential side effects.

I also bring strong documentation and clinical coordination skills—accurately charting patient information, documenting assessments and interventions, and supporting safe controlled substance administration. In fast-paced clinic settings, I room patients, gather vitals, assist with durable medical equipment, schedule imaging and procedures, and collaborate in care for over 100 patients per day across pre-op, post-op, and recovery.
