About Tori Meskin

I started my nursing career in 2013 at a Children\'s Hospital and completed a 22-week residency & became an active & involved nurse within the organization. Later, I sought NICU experiences as a local travel nurse. I have worked in nurse positions around the LA & OC areas (Children\'s Hospitals, University Hospitals, Private, & Non-Profit Organizations etc). I have also worked as a Critical Care Float RN (NICU, CVICU, PICU, Oncology) & currently obtaining my MSN degree. In addition, I began my Nurse blog and can find me @nurse.tori_ on Instagram. My nursing experiences have included care of surgical neonates, micro preemies (Small Baby Unit, SBU), various congenital anomalies, palliative care, pre-surgical cardiothoracic care, pre/post gastrointestinal surgical care, neurological care/assessments, etc. My skills include but are not limited to; IV starts, lab draws, safe medication administration, assistance with central line placement (UVC, UAC, PICC lines), VTM monitoring, management of ventilated patients (HFOV, SIMV, Conventional, etc), G-Tube feeds, salem sump/repogle management, ostomy care, tracheostomy care, respiratory distress management, CPAP/nasal cannula management, assistance with intubations, gavage feeds, vital sign assessment, etc. I have learned how to take action during a patient’s change of status and act accordingly.
