Ashley Gresham

Led hospital wide education for all clinical areas related to Quality Assurance, Infection Control and Clinical Algorithm Management. Chosen on multiple occasions by other departments to aid and develop education for complicated procedures to help streamline effective communication in clinical and non-clinical matters.

Having an instinctual desire to cut through fluff and unnecessary task is a unique skill and one that I have found very natural. I take a detailed look at process and through the use of advanced technology skills and a people, oriented focus and provide valuable skills that can shave off time consuming task without losing the integrity of the work being done.

I enjoy collaboration and input and am always eager to learn from seasoned staff members to build on my own experience. I highly respect a great working culture and strive to be an integral part of that culture

2 years of experience in a high acuity, acute care setting. Advance training with ports, central lines and pharmaceuticals, as well as many other modalities specific to oncology nursing. Close observation of the patient's mind, body and soul have become an integral part of who I am as a nurse. This skill set serves me well becoming valuable in my development as a nurse, helping me develop effective communication to educate, guide and ease the anxieties patients face during illness. 

Prioritizing is vital. Managing my time by cutting out unnecessary task, being responsive and proactive. Working efficiently and effectively as a team player and an individual when it is needed.

 7 years of clinical experience in critical care, geriatrics, labor and delivery, pediatrics, community nursing, physician’s office, heart center, pharmacy, head start, women’s services, as well as trauma, telemetry, and medical-surgical. Primary time spent in oncology and cardiac critical care. 

I thrive in a dynamic environment where I can utilize my creative abilities and work toward the best patient outcomes, I desire to be a sounding board of knowledge and skill, I will always be willing to look for ways to learn and grow as a nurse.
