Expert has worked with a variety of patients in the health care setting and is knowledgable of multiple disease processes and their presentation. An ability to accurately assess a patient in the emergency setting is critical and often done before the MD arrives. ED nurses have a higher level of autonomy than nurses in other areas and care is often initiated by the RN, under the guidance of ER physicians. Expert is proficient in this and able to competently care for and treat patients with many kinds of disease processes. |
|
geriatrics expert |
Expert has primarily worked with the geriatric population throughout her career. The community emergency department she works in does encounter pediatrics but an affiliate hospital specializes with women and children so the population is primarily geriatric.
