Sydney Garris

I am a Registered Nurse with experience across emergency, pediatric, cardiac intermediate, and inpatient pediatric care settings, committed to compassionate, high-quality patient outcomes. I hold a BSN from East Carolina University and maintain certifications including BLS, ACLS, PALS, NRP, CEN, TNCC, and NIHSS.

In my current role in an Emergency Room, I rapidly assess, triage, and treat both adult and pediatric patients, coordinate interdisciplinary care, and respond to hospital-wide emergency events. Previous roles include Pediatric Emergency Room, Pediatrics Intermediate Care, and Cardiac Intermediate Unit where I provided acute and chronic care and served as a resource for new graduates and students.

I bring strong procedural and critical-thinking skills—EKGs, PIVs/blood draws, urinary catheter and tracheostomy care, medication administration, and Epic documentation—combined with a patient-advocacy mindset and a continual eagerness to learn and improve outcomes for each individual.
