Summary
Competent healthcare professional with four years of clinical experience as a register nurse and four years of experience as a certified nursing assistant. My primary focus of care is to ensure patients and families are up to date with education on their medications, procedures, and plans throughout all of their hospital stay. During my practice as a registered nurse, I have had three years of clinical experience as a preceptor, guiding new hires and students throughout their initial journey. Strengths lie heavily in collaboration, communication, and leadership with a strong background in education from both of my previous degrees.
