0Additional Information
I am a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner (FNP) and Adult-Geriatric Nurse Practitioner (AGPCNP) with over seven years of experience providing comprehensive inpatient care to adult and geriatric patients. My clinical practice focuses on hospital medicine, where I perform comprehensive history and physical examinations, admit and manage medically complex patients, develop treatment plans, interpret diagnostic studies, and coordinate multidisciplinary care across medical-surgical, telemetry, and step-down units. My background includes extensive experience caring for patients with acute and chronic medical conditions, complex comorbidities, cardiovascular disease, infectious diseases, and age-related illnesses. I have significant expertise in geriatric medicine, transitions of care, palliative care, and evidence-based clinical decision-making. I routinely collaborate with physicians, specialists, nursing staff, therapists, and case management teams to optimize patient outcomes while adhering to current standards of care. Prior to becoming a nurse practitioner, I worked as a registered nurse in emergency and telemetry settings, providing a strong foundation in acute care, patient assessment, and critical thinking. I maintain current certifications in Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) and Basic Life Support (BLS) and am committed to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care through sound clinical judgment, effective communication, and adherence to evidence-based practice.
