Work History
Nurse Manager
Boston Medical Center Hospital

10.2022 - Current
- In management of both Transitional Care Management programs; Hospital reAdmission Reduction Program (HARP) and Complex Care Management (TOC CCM), I consistently interact directly with the CM teams, as well as the local ED, Inpatient, Primary Care and specialty teams for improving care and reducing readmissions for our patients who are discharging from the hospital to a skilled nursing facility or to their home.
- I oversee staff and collaborate with multi-disciplinary team members including Nurse Practitioners, Physicians, Pharmacists, Behavioral Health Professionals, Nurses and Community Wellness Advocates (CWAs), and social workers as well.
- I continue to support the building of a very high-performing care management team through continuous improvement of the care management process, as well as the team's professional growth and development. I also recruit, hire, and onboard staff who are passionate about social justice, caring for vulnerable elderly(Medicare) patients, Medicaid patients, and clinical excellence in all settings.
- Given that staff are located across the inpatient, ambulatory and community settings, I continue to build a team culture and sense of community that overcomes geographic separation across team members.
- I regularly prepare HARP Weekly Care Planning report by reviewing patient charts for accuracy and completeness of documentation by staff, including the use of other EMR systems like Epic, Collective Medical Technology (CMT), JIVA, Tableau Dashboard and other patient portals. I also evaluate patient needs and preferences to build and update tailored treatment plans during weekly care planning meetings.
- I regularly maintain accurate inventory of program
- materials, including CCM/HARP one-pager (patient
- facing); creating Data-sharing and patient consent forms; other materials as developed.
- Working alongside BMC Marketing/social media team, I served as a major stakeholder in the creation of HARP website on the BMC HUB and in creation of a current collaborative workflow that exist between BMC ED and HARP to improve avoidable re/admissions.
- I follow up on office operational needs, such as medical
- supplies, keys/office supplies (paper, toner), and tracphones; proactive drafting of appropriate tracking and
- workflow documentation.
- I continue to maintain accurate records of employee attendance, sick leave requests, vacation time.
- I conduct regular meetings with staff to discuss concerns or issues related to their work and practices.
- I apply clinical judgment and comprehensive knowledge of facility policies to identify areas that may require refresher training or correction with individual team members, or full team to assist with patient care decisions.
- I continue to strive to achieve program goals and objectives by instituting new processes and standards for patient care.
