About Laura Herrera:

Bilingual with 6 years in Nursing with high level acuity patients from Tracheostomy, Gastric tube, sterile procedures, wound vacs/wound care, PICC/Midline care(medication administration) and PIV insertion and care. Medical background for 13+ years Including X-ray tech, phlebotomy, medical assisting, and laboratory technician. Communication and critical thinking are one of my greater strengths.
