April B.
El Dorado, AR
RN, Medical/Telemetry Unit
I am a registered nurse employed by Medical Center of South
Arkansas. I work on the fourth floor, where I have been for the
past seven years. My first year of experience on this unit was as a
patient care technician. During this time, I was completing my RN
in Magnolia, AR, at Southern Arkansas University. My experiences as
a PCT helped me realize what a wonderful profession I had chosen.
The Medical/Telemetry Unit has been the only specialty area I’ve
tried on a full time basis, but I’ve had the opportunity to float
to other specialty areas. Those areas include Surgical,
Rehabilitation, Recuperative Care, Women’s Services and Post
Partum. I really must say, since becoming a nurse, I’ve never regretted
my decision. I’ve always enjoyed making people feel better and
helping put a smile their faces. The most wonderful feeling comes
over me each time I leave a patient’s room and overhear the patient
and/or the family commenting positively on the care they’re
receiving. I participate annually in career ladder activities to show how
much I care about educating our patients and the community. I have
accomplished many goals during my nursing career, but there’s one
honor that surprised me: In September, 2004, I was chosen as
employee of the month, and later because employee of the year in
December. Hard work, determination, and a simple smile packed with
TLC have led the way!
