Our Pediatric LPN/RN at Phoenix approaches patient care with a focus on compassion, skill, and Christ-like values. You will be actively involved in creating individualized care plans and educating families, ensuring that each child receives personalized and effective care.

In my previous role, I worked closely with children and their families, managing a range of health issues from chronic conditions to post-operative care. I always strive to provide a comforting environment, ensuring that both the child and their family understand the care being provided.

I prioritize tasks by assessing the urgency and complexity of each patient's needs. I utilize checklists to keep track of care routines and ensure that I am timely in documenting observations to communicate effectively with the healthcare team.

I employ active listening skills and encourage questions to foster an open line of communication. Simplifying medical terminology and taking the time to explain each step of care helps to build trust and understanding with families.

During stressful situations, I remain calm and focused. I find that taking a moment to assess the situation and communicate with colleagues helps me stay composed. Additionally, I use distraction techniques with children to ease anxiety and create a more positive atmosphere.

The most rewarding aspect is making a positive difference in the lives of children and their families. Watching a child recover and knowing that I've played a role in their care is incredibly fulfilling, driving my passion for nursing every day.

I have extensive experience using electronic health record systems. I appreciate the efficiency it brings to documentation and communication, allowing me to focus more on patient care while maintaining accurate and detailed records that other team members can access.

I actively seek out continuing education opportunities, attend workshops, and participate in professional nursing organizations. Staying connected with colleagues and sharing insights also helps keep me informed on best practices in pediatric care.

If I notice a change in a patient’s condition, I would promptly assess the situation, document my findings, and communicate with the attending physician to determine the next steps. Timely intervention is crucial in ensuring patient safety and effective care.

I resonate with Phoenix's mission of providing compassionate, individualized care and appreciate the opportunity for growth within the organization. I'm excited about being part of a team that prioritizes both patient and caregiver wellness.

My nursing philosophy centers on treating the whole person, not just the illness. I believe in approaching care through compassion, education, and support, empowering patients and their families to be active participants in their health journey.
