Summary
Detail-oriented Emergency Room Technician with EKG interpretation and CPR certification. Proven ability to thrive in high-stress environments while delivering quality patient care and assisting medical staff during critical situations. I am not certified as a nursing assistant or a medical technician, due to North Mississippi Hospital not requiring certifications, but I am very experienced, as I have spent the last two years of my life working in healthcare.
