I have 25 years of vast nursing experience as an Licensed Practical Nurse. I graduated for my LPN license in 1993 with honors. I received The Star of Excellence Award for generating the most Relative Value Units (eRVUs) where I currently work in 4/2012. I received the Best LPN Outpatient award out of all the government outpatient clinics in the Pacific Region in 2014. I graduated with my Bachelor degree of Science in Nursing for Registered Nurse in 2015. As an LPN I was a charge wound nurse at a rehabilitation hospital. I was a charge nurse at a nursing home for six years. The charge nurse entailed overseeing 50 patients and four nursing assistants. My objective as a professional nurse is to give the best quality of care to my clients while giving the up most emotional and compassionate support.
