Kershaw County Medical Center
Healthcare Services
I work as a registered nurse in a fast paced emergency room. The ER at Kershaw Health had a 15 bed capacity. From my begginnings as an ICU nurse in Atlanta, GA I have returned to my home in emergency medicine having served in fire, police and EMS for nearly twelve years. I am a strong advocate of patient rights and of providing the highest level of care for my patient(s) and for the effectiveness of the facility for which I am employed. I am interested in traveling right now and am not opposed to the idea of permanent placement in a progressive and amiable atmosphere. I have a thorough knowledge of emergency medicine and the application thereof. I do look forward to furthering both my skills and my education on a graduate level.
