Summary

Dedicated Registered Nurse with a diverse background spanning over 15 years in healthcare, beginning as a Home Health Aide and progressing through roles including LPN in Home Health and Med Surg at Purcell Hospital. After earning my RN, I specialized in Emergency Room care before transitioning to Home Health, where I excelled as Clinical Manager at the Norman branch. I further honed my leadership skills managing a federally funded medical clinic, South Central Medical and Resource Center in Washington, Oklahoma, dedicated to serving underserved populations. Recently resigned to prioritize family, seeking a part-time or potentially full-time nursing position to continue delivering exceptional patient care while maintaining a balanced family life.
