Dedicated registered nurse focused on optimal patient outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I am a committed registered nurse with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of South Carolina-Aiken. Since graduating in May 2019, I have gained extensive experience in various nursing roles, including Medical Surgical, Intensive Care Unit, and Trauma-Burn care. My dedication to providing client-centered, evidence-based nursing care has allowed me to effectively serve vulnerable populations and improve patient experiences.
Throughout my career, I have worked in Level 1 and 2 Trauma hospitals, delivering bedside care to critically ill patients and those with complex medical conditions. My responsibilities have included monitoring vital signs, administering medications, and educating patients and families about disease processes and procedures. I take pride in my ability to communicate effectively with patients and their families, ensuring they are informed and comfortable during their care.
As I continue to grow in my nursing career, I remain committed to lifelong learning and professional development. I hold certifications in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) and Basic Life Support (BLS), and I am proficient in various healthcare technologies, including EPIC and CERNER. I am eager to contribute my skills and experience to a healthcare team that values compassionate care and patient advocacy.
