Promoting Professional Growth for Better Patient OutcomesOver the course of my career, I have served in in multiple capacities in the nationally acclaimed Women’s Center at Northside-Atlanta, and over the last 12 years, at Northside Hospital-Forsyth while offers comprehensive services for labor and delivery, neonatal care, high-risk perinatal diagnostics, parenting and newborn classes and lactation consultation to Forsyth County.I understand the complexity of managing large-scale and high-stakes operations. I bring a big picture view on how all pieces fit together and a high level of intuition and care geared at ensuring nursing staff and patients’ personal and professional well-being. Furthermore, I am adept at empathic leadership and a knack for listening, which, in turn informs my ability to make sound decisions and maintain top quartile HCAHPS patient satisfaction scores and nursing staff retention rates. Moreover, I believe that taking care of nursing staff personal and professional wellbeing coupled with selecting the right talent, allows for a more autonomous team of individuals able to make the right decisions and further drive patient care without being micromanaged.As a founding member of Northside Hospital-Forsyth, I was initially tasked with coordinating of all affairs of the newly introduced Family Centered Care service area. In my role as Operations Coordinator, I worked closely with construction crews on the latter stages of the initial opening. Subsequently, I was actively involved in the planning and design of the 18-month new wing construction project.I am currently responsible for the 120-employee and 3,500 deliveries per year Family Centered Care unit with accountability for leading, hiring, educating, and the complete upkeep of the patient care facilities and equipment. In this role, I collaborate with other departments within the Women’s Center and Northside Forsyth and serve, on rotation basis, on the Administrative coverage for entire Women’s Center. Outside my professional responsibilities, I believe that beyond delivering babies, we all have the responsibility for raising good citizens. I have the pleasure of raising my own with the mantra that the world will be a better place for all, with more care and compassion abounding!
