-Provide education to ECMO specialists, PICU physicians, and bedside nurses

- Teach ECMO mechanics, CRRT integration, and apheresis therapies

- Contributed to ECMO anticoagulation quality improvement projects

- Assisted in data collection and process improvement

- Developed and delivered unit education on apheresis treatments

• Operated ECMO machines to support critically ill pediatric patients during high-stakes procedures.
• Collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to develop and implement patient care protocols.
• Monitored hemodynamic parameters, ensuring optimal patient management and ECMO performance.
• Trained and mentored new staff on ECMO techniques and operational procedures.
• Participated in simulation training exercises designed to improve emergency response times for initiating extracorporeal life support interventions during time-sensitive situations.

• Provide care for critically ill pediatric patients in a high-acuity ICU setting
• Monitored vital signs and recognized changes in patient conditions, escalating issues as necessary for timely intervention.
• Educated families on treatment plans, medications, and post-discharge care to enhance understanding and compliance.
• Manage and monitor mechanically intubated patients,including advanced modes and arterial blood gas interpretation.
• Titrate vasoactive infusions (e.g., epinephrine, norepinephrine, vasopressin) to maintain hemodynamic stability
• Monitor and manage invasive lines, including arterial lines and central venous catheters
• Deliver sedation and analgesia for mechanically ventilated patients
