Summary
A dedicated and well-qualified registered nurse for almost seven years. For the last two years, I've been working in medical step-down at Christ Hospital, Cincinnati, OH. In the medical step-down floor, I am taking care of mainly cardiac patients, as well as neurology, and GI cases. Before that, I was working in the neurosurgery ICU in the second biggest hospital back home, Iran. Since I am very passionate about cardiac cases, detail-oriented, and patient-focused, I hope I can get a chance to work in the CV-ICU at Kaiser Permanente Hospital to enhance my nursing skills.
