Professional Summary:

I have over 39 years of nursing experience in a variety of settings. At present and in the past 6 months, I have been working with Aveanna Healthcare, doing private duty nursing with pediatric patients.

I believe my past 35 plus years of nursing experience will be an asset to joining your team.

In 2015 through 2020 I worked at Superior Health Plan/Centene Corporation with their Member Support Services Center, previously Service Coordination department with Complex Member Support Services.

I also have experience in coordinating care plans for disabled patients, as well as entering medical assessments and patient data into computer systems. I have experience in case management as well as completing full length health assessments including providing direct patient care to patients in different specialty areas. Also, my experience extends into being able to obtain pre-certifications and authorizations for care for patients in the Family Practice office as well as the Pediatric Surgeon office care setting.

I am seeking to work in a different avenue of the healthcare industry and am eager to join your team of professionals.
