Summary
I have worked for Spartanburg Medical Center for five years in both a high acuity level and now out in the field caring for home bound patients. I am looking to return inpatient to advance my nursing skills and care for patients at the bedside as they advance towards healing. I enjoy working for SMC and would be a great asset to any team as we move towards improving patient care, outcomes and satisfaction.
