Biography
Ana Bandin received her Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Miami in 2006. She’s been a pediatric nurse in the respiratory unit for more than 10 years. Her expertise, passion for teaching, innovation and evidence based practice, led her to her current role of clinical educator for her unit. She’s a Master in Nursing Education candidate this summer. She serves as the facilitator for the nursing research and evidence based practice council at Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. She was presented the certificate of Excellence for an Evidence-based practice Poster from the Society of Pediatric Nurses in April 2016 and awarded Scholar of the Year for her organization in Nurses’ week 2016. Ana strives for quality and safe care through best practices while driving service excellence and patient satisfaction in her unit and organization.
Jenna Klareich has been practicing as a pediatric nurse for 8 years. She obtained masters in nursing education from the University of Central Florida. While practicing as a bedside nurse, she acquired a certification in pediatric nursing. She then became an assistant nurse manager for a medical surgical pediatric unit and an orthopedic/neurology pediatric unit. Along with working at the bedside and in management, she also worked part time as an adjunct instructor at a local nursing college educating nursing students in the skills lab and taking them to clinical sites. Currently, I practice as a clinical specialist/educator on a medical pediatric unit. The specialties on the unit include, but are not limited to, gastroenterology, endocrinology, nephrology, and adolescent medicine. Educating patients, families, and staff about current evidence based practices is a strong passion of mine so everyone can benefit from high quality care.
