Summary

Hello! My name is Gracie Gagon, and I am a Registered Nurse striving to further my career in the healthcare field. I am compassionate and dedicated, with a strong commitment to patient care and well-being. I am an excellent team player, dependable, and will dedicate my time to delivering the best care to each individual patient. I have a love for women's health, and working with mothers and babies has been an ultimate goal of mine since entering nursing school! I completed my capstone at Mountain View Hospital in the Labor and Delivery unit last July, and loved every minute of it! I am kind, empathetic and motivated to learn and grow as a nurse!
