Se Yeong (Stella) Kim

Fairfax

Summary

Compassionate Registered Nurse with 2+ years of experience caring for complex post-surgical GI, colorectal, and kidney transplant patients in a high-acuity medical-surgical setting in Inova Fairfax Hospital. Strong background in discharge planning, patient education, and chronic condition management, with a focus on promoting safe transitions from hospital to home.

Skilled in teaching patients and caregivers about ostomy care, wound management, medication administration, and complication prevention to reduce readmissions. Proven ability to work independently, prioritize care, and collaborate with interdisciplinary teams, including case managers, WOCN nurses, and home health services to ensure continuity of care. Bilingual in English and Korean, enhancing communication with diverse patient populations.

My experience caring for complex post-surgical patients has prepared me to support individuals beyond the hospital setting. I am passionate about guiding patients and families through recovery at home, ensuring they feel confident, safe, and supported in managing their care independently.
