Erin Sevilla, nurse manager, has grown a whole new department since 2022 after combining two service lines into one (VAST Team was created to blend the IV and phlebotomy teams). Erin has been a supportive and engaged leader who demonstrated care and compassion to listen to the needs of her staff when they expressed angst as they worked under a new model. Erin supported their transition with gentle patience and positivity. Her calm demeanor and levelheadedness make her easily approachable. Erin has been collaborative with Nursing and Value Analysis in trialing and/or supporting new product rollouts that have decreased hospital costs and directly improved patient safety. She acts as a liaison between the VAST Team and the inpatient bedside nurses, as well as the nursing unit leaders. Erin does "in the moment" teaching to help nurses perform bedside care. She has edited policies to the latest INS standards and regularly reports updated the nurses in PDC and CPC meetings. Erin is an integral member of the CLABSI Task Force and is considered one of the content experts. When asked for assistance with CLABSI concerns, --she is quickly willing to prepare documents or PowerPoint slides to help illustrate a learning need or data point. Erin has taken the time and effort to perform comprehensive audits on CVAD lines (when not asked to do so) in order to provide real-time feedback to nurses and managers/educators about how their unit is doing meeting the CVAD care standards. She created a model change for clustered care of patients with central lines--by placing a Magnet outside the room signifying "nurse draw" to alert staff to a patient who would benefit from fewer interruptions and invasive procedures if all of the venipuncture needs were met by the VAST team in one single visit. Erin and her VAST Team members have recently engaged nurses with a fun and interactive learning experience. They are wearing a t-shirt printed with the major blood vessels and heart. They have all the CVAD lines attached to the t-shirt, showing where the lines are placed inside the body. The feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, and staff are learning so much! We are blessed to have Erin as a leader. Her calming energy and passion for "all things VAST" is a gift to all of us, and we are stronger because of all Erin does to support our nursing teams and patients!
