Registered Practical Nurse
CurrentAs a Registered Practical Nurse in the complex care unit, I provide comprehensive care to patients with diverse, long-term needs, including tracheostomy care, chronic respiratory conditions, and rehabilitation. I monitor patients' conditions closely, administer medications, perform wound and tracheostomy care, and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to create and adjust individualized care plans. My role involves providing education and emotional support to both patients and their families, ensuring they understand ongoing care requirements. I work closely with physicians, Nurse Practitioners, respiratory therapists, and other healthcare professionals to deliver coordinated care, I use my critical thinking and problem-solving skills to manage complex cases over extended stays.
