About Sara

With almost 20 years of experience as a registered nurse, I can honestly say I love being a nurse and I love helping new nurses. NCLEX prep is fun, and I truly enjoy helping graduate nurses prepare for success. Whether you are struggling grasping concepts, understanding fundamentals, or need help with question strategy, I can help. Currently, a clinical faculty at major state university, teaching adult health to second semester BSN students. The challenges of nursing school are real, especially during the pandemic. Unfortunately, not everyone is prepared for the NCLEX the first time, don't worry, this is not a reflection of your ability. I spent many years as a successful nurse manager of an ortho/trauma/burn unit at a large Magnet designated acute care level one trauma center, and am familiar with hiring, mentoring, coaching, and teaching both graduate and experienced nurses. Engaging and make connections with nursing students and graduate nurses comes naturally for me.
In addition to an MSN, BSN, CMSRN, TNCC, TCAR, BLS, and ACLS, I have served on numerous quality improvement committees and projects resulting in improved patient experience, quality patient outcomes, and financial stewardship. Including experience in pain management, patient safety, peer review, government regulations and reimbursement, post-op spine care, acute trauma care, burn, elective orthopedic procedures, traumatic orthopedic conditions, medical-surgical care, postpartum care, diabetes, wound care, mental illness, addiction, and psych.
I believe nursing is a life-long journey of continuing education, new experiences, and adapting to the healthcare needs of the patients we serve. I would love the opportunity to tutor nurses or nursing students that have the heart and desire to make a difference but may be struggling with fundamental concepts and application. Please contact me for your tutoring needs. I commit to making it fun, using realistic scenarios, and provide honest feedback.
