Lauren Solans

Currently, I am Registered Nurse in the Medical Intensive Care Unit at Tampa General Hospital, where I have developed strong critical thinking, clinical judgment, and compassionate patient care skills in a high acuity environment. I aspire to become a Family Nurse Practitioner to further integrate my nursing expertise with advanced medical knowledge, allowing me to provide comprehensive, patient centered care. In the future I hope to combine my passion for lifelong learning and education by mentoring future nurses and serving as a preceptor, helping to foster the next generation of healthcare professionals.
