Marche Salley

I worked on-site at Delnor Hospital in Geneva, IL with an innovative robot delivery system called 'Moxi'. Within it, I learned a lot of technical and engineering-related skills, such as:

• Identified customer needs and developed solutions based on user feedback.
• Utilized evidence-based practices when providing clinical interventions.
• Developed and tested mechanical components to ensure proper functioning.

I work for multiple agencies such as, but not limited to: GrapeTree Medical Staffing, Clipboard Health, ShiftKey, AllShifts, and so on. Part of my duties included:

• Responding quickly and calmly in emergencies.
• Maintaining patient stability by checking vital signs and weight, and recording intake and outtake information.
• Supporting ambulation and physical therapy needs by conducting planned exercise routines.
• Changing room linens, keeping spaces fresh and clean for patient health and satisfaction.

I am currently certified in three states (Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin), all in good standing.

I worked alongside highly skilled nurses and doctors and provided care according to demand, such as:

• Responded to patient emergencies with immediate care and notified clinicians to provide comprehensive assistance.
• Cared for clients with diagnoses such as respiratory failure, diabetes, Parkinson's disease, and muscular dystrophy.
• Provided emotional support to distressed family members during critical situations or emergencies involving their loved ones.
• Reduced wait times for patients by effectively prioritizing tasks based on urgency and level of need.
• Demonstrated strong interpersonal skills while interacting with diverse populations under stressful conditions in a fast-paced environment.
• Quickly responded to codes and cardiac monitor alarms.
• Assisted medical professionals with diagnostic procedures, contributing to accurate diagnoses and appropriate treatment plans.

Fun Fact: I have been nominated for the Rose Award 9 times during my employment at this facility. I was also born here!

I worked in the North Tower of the hospital, where I would mainly assist with guiding family and friends to where their loved ones were. Other jobs include:

• Participated in volunteer orientations and training sessions to learn about organizational changes and mission updates.
• Maintained clean, neat, and operational facilities to serve program needs.
• Supported engaging, fun, and smooth-running events by helping with organization and planning.

Fun Fact: I delivered flowers and balloons to newborns, and I would usually be the first to say congratulations to the new parents!
