Accomplishments
I have been proctored by 2 amazing physicians at Oakdale Family Practice and the Romeo Medical Clinic throughout 2019. I am comfortable doing physical exams and treating acute and long-term care problems and doing minor procedures. I was asked to join both groups during my training period.
I created and implemented educational “skills update” classes for licensed staff while working as charge nurse in the Urgent Care department. I have collaborated with the education department at Sutter to produce refresher courses including orthopedic splinting classes, advanced cardiac life support highlights and tools for managing anxious patients and or family members.
