Work History
Wish Brigade Team

Temecula, CA

As a part of Wish Brigade at Charity for Charity I help plan, organize and execute wishes and events for local individuals with life threatening illnesses or traumatic injuries.
Registered Nurse
Sharp HealthCare
Kearny Mesa, CA
11.2014 - 04.2018
I worked as an Oncology nurse on a 30 bed acute care unit
My duties included initial and ongoing assessments, pain management, wound care, administering medication including chemotherapy, initiating and maintaining blood/antibiotic infusions, collecting and interpreting labs, starting and maintaining TPN/tube feedings, assessing vitals, initiating and communicating orders, charting, and maintaining continuous communication with each patient, their families, physicians, and other staff members
Included in this was also palliative care for my terminal patients. Being on an oncology unit, this was an area that I have a lot of experience in, and am very passionate about. I believe with all my heart that this time needs to be treated with the utmost respect and dignity. Transitioning to end of life care prioritizes patient/family needs and should be met without hesitation.
