About goodnightopus4

goodnightopus4 has 11 years experience as a BSN and specializes in Community health, Education, Administration.


I lived and worked in Oregon, USA until last year when I moved to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.  I've worked in skilled care, community health, retail health, immediate care and administration.  After about 8 years as a bedside nurse, I stumbled into an unexpected role creating an innovative training lab for a big hospital system. After that, I became the clinical operations manager for a new line of retail health clinics where I helped to open 14 locations across the metro area.  And now, I'm the cofounder of a healthcare company in Vietnam, trying to find a way to improve conditions in a bustling, crazy, beautiful city.  What an adventure nursing turned out to be!
