Work History
CRRN
Encompass Health Rehabilitation Hospital of York
01.2022 - Current
- With this role I have been able to come into my own as a nurse. A few things that I prioritize during my shifts: Individualizing the patient care that I give to optimize the patient experience. Assessing patients consistently throughout my shift for any changes and reporting these changes to the provider as required. Administering medications and treatments as ordered. Multitasking and adapting to various things that occur during my shift and most importantly, being an excellent team player to provide the best patient care. I have an active role on our hip fracture protocol team, our nurse residency program and am an active preceptor of new staff at the facility.
- Self-motivated, with a strong sense of personal responsibility.
- Worked effectively in fast-paced environments.
