NerdeNurse ADN

Open Heart ICU, MICU, SICU, PACU and Pre-Op

I've always been a nerd/dreamer/inventor. Being a critical care RN for over 25 years has been a blessing. I don't like the limelight and hope I can give back via Nerd eNurse.

About NerdeNurse

NerdeNurse has 33 years experience as a ADN and specializes in Open Heart ICU, MICU, SICU, PACU and Pre-Op.

Becoming a nurse was my third career choice.  I worked in construction and manufacturing before becoming a nurse. I married a nurse and learned what a great career it could be, so I became a nurse.  I worked in critical care for most of my 25+ year career.  I never stopped being a nerd/dreamer/inventor.  I combined my talents and started my own company.  I invent, manufacture and sell specialty medical products.  I was also granted a patent for a child safety restraint.  I was a member of the Edison Inventors Association until it closed down.  I have a engineers brain where I like to analyze combined with a nurses brain because I am a problem solver with common sense.   I am closing in on retirement and am hoping that through my Nerd eNurse profile to share tidbits of things I have learned along the way.
