Experience & Education

Registered nurse

Jul 2011 - May 2017

St Joseph’s hospital

Six years of nursing experience; 4 years as a LPN and 2 years as a RN. My clinical experiences specialized in geriatrics, palliative care and cardiac nursing. Throughout my six years of experience, I developed a variety of clinical skills that were applied to effectively and safely provide high standards of patient-centered care. I worked daily with patients that had a variety of chronic diseases that would be admitted to the hospital for acute complications, such as infections, exacerbation of their specific condition or diagnoses of new complaints. Cardiac monitoring was individualized among patients that had an admitting diagnosis of a cardiovascular complication or had a past medical history of cardiac disease. In May 2015, I received my CORE certification, which focused on cardiac rhythm anomalies as well as the management of patients with cardiac disease. My passion was working in the four bed palliative care unit. End of life care involved implementing comfort measures with compassion and therapeutic communication with both the patient and family members. In addition to my clinical experience, I was designated as the evening team leader. My responsibilities included supervision of five to six staff members on the twenty-six bed unit working closely with the shift’s supervisor. I assessed and managed staffing needs as well as delegated admissions to other nursing staff. I was also responsible in handling any matters that occurred on that shift.

I am an energetic, reliable and compassionate registered nurse who is devoted to caring for others. I have 6 years of nursing experience; 4 years as a LPN and 2 years as a RN. I acquired my experience in a fast-paced hospital setting on a medical surgical floor and I am now avid in shifting my nursing practice to a private duty care giver. My interest in nursing began as a young girl after a personal family experience with a close loved one. Through my high school years, I was given the opportunity to explore the health care field more in depth by shadowing various jobs. I found nursing to be the most appealing because of its diversity and constant advances in medical trends that give plenty of opportunities to build a strong foundation of nursing skills and wide range of experiences. Through dedication and the use of medical advances, my medical expertise and skill sets, I work diligently to provide safe compassionate quality care. I have a strong passion for caring for others and take pride in what I do. I enjoy building trusting relationships with clients and their families and believe communication is the key ingredient. Other traits and experiences include: * Establishes short and long term goals with clients and families. * Proficient in assessments, planning, implementation and evaluation. * 6 years of experience in geriatrics, cardiac and comfort/palliative care. * Well organized and team player with collaborative health care team members. * Ambition to learn new medical advances and experience new things. My current availability would be Monday through Friday after 4:30pm. 1 day a week twice a month I am committed to working a short shift from 8-9:30pm, but I do have a month in advance notice. Thank you for taking the time and your consideration in reviewing my profile. I would be happy to answer any questions or provide any additional information needed. Thank you!
