About RadEllie

RadEllie has 4 years experience as a ASN, RN and specializes in PCU/Tele/IMC, Critical Care, PACU.


Hi! I graduated with my ADN in 2020, just in time to cut my teeth on COVID-19. I worked in a Progressive Care Unit for the first year and a half of my career, and then went to work in a PACU at a trauma level 1 hospital. Trauma Level 1 means we get lots of highly critical patient populations in the PACU, they stay with us until an ICU bed becomes available. This is a frequent occurrence because we are also the county hospital. All in all I've been able to build upon my PCU experience to manage extremely critical patients. I've been with this PACU a little over a year and half and I love it. I did think I missed the floor so I took a PRN job working once a week in telemetry. I'll be done with my BSN this October of 2023!
