Infection Prevention
I originally pursued a career in nursing to help others, unaware of the unique path it would lead me down. Over time, I've realized that carefully implementing evidence-based practices and policies is essential for ensuring quality of care and safeguarding patient safety. I am passionate about contributing to these efforts, particularly in infection prevention.
