ER Nurse
Steady hands and quick decisions when minutes matter

Serves as a charge nurse on her shift and helped implement a stroke-alert pathway that cut door-to-treatment times. Performs triage and rapid assessment, runs trauma and resuscitation, administers medication safely under pressure, and coordinates the flow of a packed department. Calm, decisive and compassionate in patients' worst moments. Looking for a charge or senior ER nursing role with a department that supports and develops its emergency team.
