Summary

With 18 years of experience as a credentialed and licensed vocational nurse, I have provided compassionate care in both in-home and long-term care settings. My expertise extends to caring for pediatric and geriatric patients, where I have demonstrated exceptional clinical, interpersonal, and time management abilities. As a California-licensed vocational nurse, I am dedicated to helping individuals from diverse backgrounds with their healthcare needs. My top skills include effective communication, medication administration, and wound care. I am experienced in managing total nursing care and administering prescribed medications and treatments using approved nursing techniques. Through the nursing process of assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation, I assist in delivering comprehensive patient care. Additionally, I have proven competency in directing patient teaching and activities to support individualized treatment programs.
