About Lossea

Lossea has 7 years experience as a BSN, RN and specializes in Ambulatory Care.

Ambulatory care RN having worked in 2 outpatient offices for the past 7 years. My experience includes 10 months of working as an office nurse in a cardiac clinic followed by working as an office nurse at a large primary care office. After working directly wiht a family doctor for 3 years, I switched into a broad role of care coordination and transition of care with the same office, where I also manage an anticoagulation clinic and help the providers with meeting annual wellness visit goals and quality goals. As of 7/2023, I am looking to narrow my career focus by transitioning into inpatient case management.
