Recognitions

PRISM Award | April 2025

My nursing unit was honored with the prestigious PRISM Award in recognition of our excellence as an outstanding medical-surgical unit.

Wound Care Committee | January 2025

I currently serve on the Wound Care Committee at Methodist Mansfield, where our mission is to promote high-quality wound care & proactively prevent skin breakdown across the hospital. As part of our efforts, we conduct quarterly rounding to perform comprehensive skin assessments on at-risk patients, guided by their Braden scores. Additionally, I am actively involved in an educational project aimed at enhancing the knowledge & skills of our nurses & patient care technicians in managing specific skin conditions. This initiative has contributed to a reduction in wound care consults, allowing our wound care nurses to focus on more complex cases
