About me:
I am working as a charge nurse in a Psychiatric Mental Health unit. I graduated from Florida National University with a BSN (Bachelor of Science in Nursing). It was a very challenging and rigorous program. I had to do clinical rotations at hospital floors every week to complete a total of 150 hrs per semester. During my clinical rotation experience I felt a connection with Psych -Mental health specialty in particular, and this is one of the reasons I want to pursue the DNP in Mental Health.
I am very passionate about mental health nursing, and it was my experiences in the behavioral facilities that inspired me to pursue a career in this specialty. I thoroughly enjoy working with this patient population and have the maturity, patience, and understanding to be successful in this position.
I encountered mental health and chemical dependency issues in nearly every clinical rotation completed including Medical/Surgical, Oncology, Long Term Care, and Emergent Care. I feel strongly that there is a severe shortage of mental health services available in our communities.
