WORK EXPERIENCE
LPN
Interim HealthCare - Lincoln, NE-March 2015 to May 2015
I worked overnight with a ped patient. He was on trach and needed occasional suction. He also required feeding through feeding tube. He also required medication overnight. I charted my work and there where daily tasks to do such as changing tubes and cleaning.
LPN Charge Nurse
Beatrice Health and Rehabilitation - Beatrice, NE-April 2014 to April 2015
I worked overnight, supervised 3 to 4 CNA staff. I ran the med and treatment cart for up to 30 residents.Some of those residents came to us for rehabilitation straight from the hospital, their care was much more involved. I had the opportunity to work with L-vans, burns,wound vacs and much more. It was a wonderful learning experience for me.
LPN Charge Nurse
Lincoln Health and Rehabilitation - Lincoln, NE-January 2014 to April 2014
I supervised up to 6 CNA staff, and had over 45 residents under my care. I ran the treatment cart while also supervising a Medication Aide. This position was not a good fit for me due to my inexperience as a nurse. I felt it was best for me and the residents that I find a position where I could learn and grow my skilled without putting anyone in danger.
Care staff member
Region V Services - Crete/Beatrice - Beatrice, NE-May 2012 to January 2014
I worked with residents in their homes, we worked on life skills such as cooking, cleaning and budgeting. I was working full time in school to earn my LPN. I had so much respect for this company and had hoped to remain working for them once I recieved my LPN but there were no openings.
EDUCATION
LPN in Nursing

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
