Summary
I’ve been a nurse for 4 years now. I started out at Saint Mary’s Medical Center on the neurology unit and was there for 2 years. I became a charge nurse on night shift before being a nurse for a year. I also helped train new hires and new grads. I then became a travel nurse and learned I was capable of lot more than I thought! I have taken care of 6-7 patients at a time on night and day shift and do my best to provide appropriate care and give the patients what they need while passing medications and charting in a timely manner.
