WORK EXPERIENCE

Home Infusion Facilitator

August 2009 - November 2010

St. John's Hospital Home Infusion Springfield IL

While in this position I finished my BSN and completed the ONS Chemotherapy

and Biotherapy Course. I worked as part of a team to educate patients on

home IV therapy in the home and maintenance of their central lines.

In the facilitator position I worked as part of a team with 2 other nurses.

We would get the referral and check insurance benefits. Then we would get

the doctors orders and go to the hospital and teach the patient one on one

about the drug and the delivery method. We used ambulatory infusion pumps.

We also managed PCA pumps. We would call patients at home to see how they

were doing and answered phone calls from patients. The infusion nurses

worked closely with the home infusion pharmacists to assure the antibiotics

and pain medications as well as chemotherapy were correct. We obtain labs

as ordered and called the results to the doctors.
