Skills
Experience providing care with cardiac, heparin, and insulin drips,
tracheostomy care, wound/ostomy care, wound-VAC care, enteral and parenteral nutrition; PO, SQ, IM, and IV drug therapy, phlebotomy, delegation/leadership issues, and time management. Experience as a charge nurse on the Medical/Surgical floor at Phoebe Putney. This provided me with supervisory experience in a fast paced demanding setting. Being a charge nurse on the weekend shift required a higher level of critical thinking and problem solving due to management not being readily available. Experience as a field nurse in home health and EMT has sharpened my critical thinking skills due to being in a non-clinical setting while treating patients.
