I am a nurse that acquired extensive qualifications and skills in various clinical and group home settings and recently graduating with a bachelor’s in healthcare management and associate in health science. Nursing has provided me with a set of skills for close observations that required detailed documentation and charting, coordinating care, including tracking patient health records and appointments. Paying Close attention to detail while providing internal audits to be sure the facility is within compliance of regulations, policies, and procedures has allowed for my team to often reach its goals and state requirements I would often partner with medical directors and providers, case managers and social workers regarding the care and diagnosis of patients to effectively provide quality care and develop ideas and initiatives with our stakeholders to improve efficiency. While engaging I am compassionate and empathetic. I possess leadership skill including the ability to think critically, problem solve and communicate with my team and execute a plan efficiently.
