Haley Bennett Branch

Monroe,LA

Summary

I am a Northeast Louisiana native with a growing network in the region. I received my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Louisiana Monroe in 2018. I am a dedicated and compassionate Registered Nurse (RN) with a progressive career history in direct patient care, triage, and care coordination in a fast-paced environment. I am proven to remain calm under pressure and skillfully handle complex patients and high-stress situations. I consistently develop strong relationships with patients and families through empathetic communication, a respectful attitude, and excellent customer service. I will soon graduate in December 2023 with a Master of Science in Nursing-Family Nurse Practitioner from the Meyers School of Nursing at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette. Upon graduation, I intend to take boards and obtain my Louisiana family nurse practitioner license immediately. I greatly appreciate your consideration for employment as a nurse practitioner in early 2024
