Experience Summary

Hello! Let's start with a bit about my background... From 1994-2014, I worked in various US hospitals, where my responsibilities frequently included providing nursing care to Level 1 Trauma and Emergency Unit patients. Most of the patients I took care of suffered from the following: multiple systemic failures or emergencies, ones that included strokes, cardiac rest, poisonings, overdoses, car accidents, head injuries, sexual assaults, gunshot wounds, and stabbings. I assessed patients and provided necessary and prescribed treatments and medications. I provided lifesaving interventions as part of the multidisciplinary Emergency & Trauma department protocol. In 2000, I became officially specialized in Emergency & Trauma Medicine through three-part state certified exam. I also became and remained certified in ACLS, PALS and CCRN as well. While I loved every moment of my practice, unfortunately a savage act of workplace violence brought my ETC career to an early end. At first I was crushed, but shortly came to the decision to find a way to continue to help others with my knowledge. Three years prior I had began helping nursing students in my area prepare for their state board NCLEX examinations as a second occupatio. So now I began focus on that possibility in earnest. Back in nursing school, I had graduated at the top of my class. And the reasons? I was an excellent test taker, had great study skills and led a very successful independent study group. So I returned to school and acquired the skills I felt were important that a good tutor should be able to offer her clientele, i.e. proofreading, editing, knowledge of the best research processes for any situation and document creation that included essays, term papers, etc. But more importantly, I also developed my own strategy to breakdown, analyze and make the CORRECT choice for NCLEX, and subsequently created a study process/program to passing the entire NCLEX exam. And it is EXTREMELY successful--of the twenty-seven students who have completed my program, ALL TWENTY-SEVEN HAVE PASSED SUCCESSFULLY on their first attempt after completing my program. I look forward to sharing more of my program's success story with you very soon.
