Summary
I have worked as a Registered Nurse for over four years in a variety of different specialties; Mental Health, Telemetry and Critical Care. This has allowed me to develop proficiency in both fundamental and specialized nursing skills. I have shown growth in my nursing career by precepting fourth year nursing students and functioning as a Charge Nurse. I am eager to expand my knowledge base and continue to expand my existing nursing skills. I have a passion for helping patients and families as they undergo their health journeys, and am looking forward to a new experience.
