This new year brings new possibilities and...a new job! Actually this post is over due, I started in early December. I am still at Carilion ER as a PRN (as needed) staff but my new full time job is at River Ridge Dermatology, the office of Dr. Chad Johnston.
The move was a difficult one for me, I went to nursing school to be an ER trauma nurse so I never would have imagined myself in a physicians office. Leaving the high paced level 1 trauma center in Texas and coming to a small level 3 regional ER was a rough transition and really pushed me to make a change. I am so glad I did!!! The work environment is fantastic and while I'm still getting the hang of a lot of the dermatology I am having fun learning something new. We are a small office of 1 physician, 1 practice director/office manager, and 3 nurses. The practice opened right after I joined the team in December and aside from a few bumps in the road has been relatively smooth.
(this is Dr. Johnston's first private practice what
betterway to celebrate than with a skin cake?)
I am so thankful for all the support I had from my friends and family who helped me take the leap, I can see myself staying here for a long time and look forward to settling in!
