Heather Maybury-Torlucci

Royal Palm Beach,FL

Summary

Detail-oriented, organized, and compassionate soon-to-be Family Nurse Practitioner set to graduate in April 2024. I have spent the last 24 months learning how to comprehensively assess, diagnose, and treat common acute illnesses and manage chronic stable health conditions. I particularly love the women's health and the pediatric population but can treat all ages as a family nurse practitioner. I also have an undergraduate degree in psychology and worked with mentally ill adults as a case manager, so I am familiar with that population as well.

I am seeking a job once I graduate ( April 2024) in any clinical specialty within the West Palm Beach area, or remotely. I am willing to get multiple state licenses as well if needed. I prefer a job with training for a new graduate, if possible.
