Summary
I am a diverse nurse and have had a plethora of clinical backgrounds. I worked in MedSurg in the hospital for my first two years of nursing as a LVN, I went onto gastroenterology, OB/GYN, then ended up in oncology and hematology. After that is when I started Home Health. With all of these different areas of expertise and knowledge that I have retained, I will be able to provide safe nursing care that is transparent and effective.
