My clinical background is in Emergency Nursing. I started out initially on the Cardiac Stepdown Unit when I graduated in 1991 from a AS degree program and moved into to ER nursing in 1993. I continued ER nursing until 2004 when I moved to the Information Services Department as the Physician Coordinator in April of that year. I assisted in the
PACS installation at the facility and started a new project last October for
computer physician order entry. I am currently still working on this project and I have worked on electronic nursing documentation. The hospital is already up on that and we are working on stardardization of documentation throughout facility hospitals. I received a BS degree in Tech Management in October of 2004 and I am interested in getting my MS degree in healthcare admin or healthcare information services.
