Bio
Jane Muir
Rhiannon is an exceptional leader who exhibits a strong work ethic and dedication to whatever role she is in. I first met Rhiannon as a bedside RN colleague and was privileged to learn from her expertise and skillset as an emergency nurse. As Rhiannon moved into a clinical supervisor role, I was once again impressed by her commitment to facilitate collaborative, patient-centered care on the unit, while demonstrating compassionate care for bedside clinicians as well. Any organization would be fortunate to have Rhiannon work for them.
Martha Coleman
Dedicated to patient care and improving processes is how I'd describe Rhiannon. I previously worked with Rhiannon when she was a nurse leader in the Emergency Dept. She was a flexible leader, and was always willing to looking at new ways to make departmental processes better. Rhiannon is a smart, talented, and skilled nurse leader.
