REGISTERED NURSE, LABOR AND DELIVERY
Summary

I am a current Labor and Delivery nurse with ICU experience looking to utilize my continued education to become your new quality safety specialist. Throughout my MSN program I have become more familiar with what it takes to create and oversee safety procedures in the hospital setting through online simulation training, class discussions, and my mentorship with Sherri Ulfig at our Illini campus. I am dedicated to keeping our healthcare workers and patients safe without creating heavy burdens on team productivity. I am looking for a challenging new role with growth potential that will allow me to utilize my newly obtained MSN degree (MSN program to be completed February 2021). I am motivated to do all that I can to fulfill Genesis Medical Center's organizational goals and objectives by coordinating with managers, analyzing procedures and implementing improvements to promote employee and patient safety.
