Pediatrics
Rhea Jimenez, NP-C was born and raised in the Philippines. She moved to the US with my family when she was 18 years old. Her mom was a nurse back home and growing up she admired her passion in nursing. Since that moment, she knew she wanted to follow in her footsteps and contribute to improving people’s lives. Her nursing career started back in 2008. She jumped into different positions, from taking care of adults on a med surg, then going to dialysis and lastly becoming a pediatric emergency nurse. Having the opportunity to save a child’s life at Harbor UCLA has forever changed her life in a positive way. It has given her gratification that words cannot describe. Also, her 9 year experience working in Harbor UCLA pediatric unit made her realize how she is invested in the care and treatment of my patients. So, she chose to pursue my Master degree in Pediatric NP. She wants to be that person who can give children better quality of care and support them, especially in the most difficult and vulnerable moment of their lives.
