      I have approx. 1100 children, some with special needs such as being catherizing BID and tube feeding. Several with organ transplants and many with low immune systems. so watching to make sure they are not exposed to too many germs is a challenge. I triage many children durning the day, some just need TLC, some for meds, or breathing tx. It is a fun, busy, tiring job but I love all of my children here.

      Worked with the best NP around. she taught me so much about patient care and the importance of understanding their needs. I did wound care, IV therapy, breathing treatments, Pulse ox testing, charting and calling in medicine when needed. I was in charge of the medicine closet that the drug reps would bring samples. Helped with all precedures when needed, from women care to minor surgical needs.
