About
I am the stroke program coordinator at a community hospital in Georgia, and I have been a nurse for thirteen years, nine of them on a neuro unit. My job is door to needle times, chart abstraction for the registry, and standing in the emergency department at three in the morning working out why a case took too long. I run monthly education for our nursing staff and for the EMS agencies that bring us patients. Outside the hospital I speak at churches and senior centers in rural counties about recognizing stroke symptoms and calling 911 instead of driving, because we still see people arrive by private car well outside the treatment window. I am comfortable with clinical audiences and with people who have never heard the word thrombolytic.
