I have over 5 years of experience supervising invasive vascular procedures, including angiography, angioplasty, and stent placements. My role involved coordinating the team, ensuring adherence to protocols, and maintaining patient safety. I also trained staff on best practices and troubleshooting equipment issues. My background in interventional radiology and vascular surgery has equipped me to handle complex cases efficiently while minimizing risks.

I prioritize compliance by staying updated on Joint Commission and OSHA guidelines, conducting regular audits, and reinforcing strict sterile techniques. I implement checklists for pre-procedure verification and time-outs to prevent errors. Additionally, I foster a culture of accountability, where team members are encouraged to report near-misses. Continuous education on new regulations and hands-on drills ensure everyone is prepared to meet safety standards consistently.

During a critical thrombectomy, two team members disagreed on the approach, causing delays. I calmly intervened, clarified roles, and aligned everyone on the patient’s priority. Post-procedure, I facilitated a debrief to address the conflict constructively. This reinforced teamwork and established a protocol for resolving disagreements swiftly without compromising patient care.

I maintain a flexible staffing model with cross-trained personnel to cover surges in emergencies. I use real-time communication tools to mobilize additional staff when needed and prioritize cases based on acuity. By anticipating peak times and maintaining backup equipment, I ensure seamless operations even during unplanned high-volume periods.

I pair junior staff with seasoned mentors for hands-on training and provide structured feedback through case reviews. I encourage gradual autonomy with supervised practice and organize simulation labs for skill refinement. Regular competency assessments and tailored learning plans help them grow confidently while maintaining patient safety.
