Summary

Dedicated and detail oriented Registered Nurse with a devotion to excellence in patient care. My experiences in Telephonic Nursing, Medical/Surgical-Telemetry, Clinics and Inpatient Behavioral Health have given me a vast clinical foundation. I pride myself on having a solid knowledge base, high-level critical thinking skills, and ability to apply evidence-based guidelines during the determination process. Currently, I am looking to join a dynamic team of professions in Utilization Review or Care Management/Coordination. I have recent UR experience with Remote Learning Services, LLC.
