In this podcast episode we want to introduce you to our BCEN Friend, Megan Wood.
Megan Wood is currently a critical care ground transport nurse with AHN LifeFlight and holds the CFRN and Pre-hospital Register Nurse certification. She also works as a nurse intensivist, critical care, and L& D nurse at a PA area hospital.
Megan began her career as a paramedic for over 10 years in a busy 911 based EMS system and also as a flight paramedic. When she became a nurse, she continued to fly with Stat MedEvac in Pittsburgh, and working some shifts in a local hospital.
After a few years, Megan decided to embrace change and jumped into an ICU role in her hometown of Washington, PA, and once she got a few years in the ICU, she changed again to a role in the Labor and Delivery unit. It was here that Megan discovered a great passion for women’s health and has used that knowledge to teach other healthcare providers on the topics of fetal, maternal, and neonatal care as well as transport considerations for this special population.
Come along as Michael Dexter and Hollye Briggs talk with Megan about the journey from paramedic to transport nurse. She speaks to the challenges of ground transport nursing, particularly for high-risk OB care.
This episode is called, Take Care of You on the Go.
