Administration Medical Center (VAMC); 1996 – 2003

Sacramento, California and North Kaiser Permanente Hospital in Urgent Care, the Medical Treatment Unit, North Sacramento, CA. Specifically, this was a “RN Charge Nurse Sharing” position on alternate

(working as a Registered Nurse and/or a Nurse
Practitioner – for I usually continuously worked two jobs. During these clinical practices; physicians, and their Mid-level Assistants, taught me well in my
advanced practice learning environment. Oftentimes

exceed the pace of the four providers on MTU – each of the neonatal, pediatric, adolescent, and adult

physical exams and medications or treatments or
transferred to a higher or lower level of care after diagnosis and stabilization.

doubt, after working in MTU during evenings, as an Advance Practice Charge Nurse, and VA-ER during
the day, my role in nursing, from approximately two years (2003 2005—MTU closed; Kathy Miles, NM
