Kendall Kirk

A new graduate nurse with great expectation in becoming a strong team member and employee to any residency program. As a new nurse, I am willing to work the time needed in becoming a proficient nurse with increasing skills, knowledge, education, and courage. I have over 2,300 hours of clinical experience by rotation in departments such as Emergency/trauma centers, medical surgical unit, L & D, pediatric centers, psychiatry, functional health and fundamental nursing. During nursing school I was a full time student and my extracurricular activities included volunteering as a youth counselor & mentor, mission developments overseas, and assisting non profit organizations to help serve my local community. As a nurse my vision is to extend healing and safety to those suffering from medical conditions or emotional ones. Nursing is beyond the bedside, it’s a calling that takes a special heart and diligent care.

• La Casa De Major/Orphange: Participated in a hands-on outreach project focused on addressing poverty and promoting long-term community development in El Salvador. Our mission involved building safe, sustainable homes for families in underserved areas, providing direct aid and spiritual support.
• Lead Nurse for Youth Mission: Provided short term care for a youth ministry mission trip. This included medication administration, assessment of minor injuries & first aid, and patient comfort and care during their time away from home.

Compassionate and patient focused nurse who treats the job with care and excellence. I have experience providing safe and attentive care in fast-paced settings such as the ER. I am skilled in IV insertion, EKG monitoring, and effective time management while prioritizing patient needs. My background includes hands on clinical experience with exposure to acute assessments, rapid interventions, and collaborative teamwork. I would describe my greatest traits to be resilience, adaptability, task oriented, and willing to ask questions. I desire to learn every day how to become a greater nurse.
