About

Hello, I'm Ekene KC Ezenwaka, a dedicated Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Registered Nurse based in California. With nine years of experience in psychiatric care, I specialize in providing compassionate and high-quality care to patients in mental health inpatient units.

 

I have a strong background in patient assessment and critical thinking, skills that are crucial for delivering effective psychiatric care. My role has often involved supervising nursing teams, ensuring we all work towards a common goal: improving patient outcomes and satisfaction.

 

I pride myself on excellent communication and organizational skills. These strengths allow me to connect with patients from diverse backgrounds and provide culturally sensitive care. I am also proficient in using Cerner Electronic Health Records, which helps streamline documentation and maintain accurate patient information.

 

My journey in healthcare started with a solid educational foundation in Business Management from Ebonyi State University, Charles Drew University of Medicine and Science, and Herzing University. I've continuously sought to advance my expertise, focusing on evidence-based and patient-centered care.

 

If you're looking for a trustworthy and compassionate PMHNP who can provide expert psychiatric care, I'm here to help. Let's work together to achieve your health goals.
