KYLE JONES

**** ***** ******** ******, ***** Chesterfield, VA 23236 540-***-**** adbo7k@r.postjobfree.com Versatile Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with over 5 years experience in the field of nursing as a RN. I initially worked as a CNA in a nursing home, then as a RN on an acute pediatric medical unit, and most recently I've worked as an RN on an inpatient child and adolescent psychiatric unit as well as working in a private practice as a psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner. I am a bright and energetic individual who works diligently to provide the most patient/family centered care possible. I have 15 written "Daisy" awards from patients or families that I believe attest to the level of intimacy in the care I provide.

I believe mental health is an area of great need and one I enjoy working in. I am adaptable in my ability to work with all age groups. I try my best each day to provide excellent care to each patient I serve by adapting to the needs of that patient and family.
