About Me
I graduated with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Grand Canyon University in August 2020, and I am licensed to practice as a Registered Nurse. I am looking forward to starting my career in an area that I am passionate about. I value patient safety, as well as holistic care and showing kindness and compassion.
I pride myself in excellent organizational and time management skills, as well as being adaptable, trustworthy, committed, detailed-oriented, caring, professional, enthusiastic, and safe as a team member.
I have completed clinical rotations through Grand Canyon University, such as geriatrics, medical surgical, behavioral health, critical care, pediatrics, obstetrics, population health, and transition to nursing. The didactic classes, clinicals, simulations, and labs have given me a wide range of experience about nursing as a whole, as well as certain specifics in each specialty.
My clinical rotations have provided me with immense knowledge about fetal heart monitoring, mother and infant protocols, head-to-toe assessments, medication administration, programming Alaris and Sigma IV pumps, infection control, giving SBAR reports, therapeutic communication, charting skills, professionalism, and comprehensive, safe, and holistic patient care.
