— PICC Excellence, Inc.

As a vascular access specialist and nurse educator I review cases, assist in developing case strategies, provide research, opinions and testimony as needed. My specialty is IV access with adults and children. I am a national expert on PICC Lines and central venous catheters. I provide the service of nursing expert witness. I frequently review cases, and provide referral information for plaintiffs and defendants, hospitals, home infusion, home care, other medical facilities and patients, but only within my area of specialization. As a PICC Line specialist and educator I am up to date on all areas of intravenous access, primary complications, etiologies, preventative measures and the standard of practice. I have no problem speaking or testifying in front of groups, depositions are a normal part of my work. Legal review is approximately 10% or less of my overall job as a consultant, with the other percent spread including curriculum development, speaking and work as a staff nurse.
