Patient-focused Registered Nurse with a background in ICU and high risk labor and delivery.
I currently work in a level III labor and delivery in triage, antepartum, labor and delivery, postpartum, PACU and OR. I triage patients, draw labs, start IV's, collaborate with physicians on patient treatments, teach patients, and monitor pain, uterine contractions and fetal tracings. In labor I assist with epidurals, monitor vitals for mom and baby, monitor fetal tracings and reactions to medications, assist in delivery of baby. In antepartum I take care of 4-5 patients at a time. I am the circulating nurse in the OR and also follow the patient to PACU. I am fluent in charting and type 65 wpm. I am certified in NRP and ACLS. I am tested yearly on EKG's, mock codes and fetal tracings.
