Amy Markham, MSN, RN, SCRN

QRM Coordinator of Neurology & Emergency Medicine – Augusta Health

My background is primarily in emergency medicine where I began my career in 1999 as an EMT-Intermediate. I enjoyed serving in different roles within EMS and the Virginia Association of Volunteer Rescue Squads. I naturally transitioned to working in the ED where I spent the next 14 years as an EMT and eventually becoming an LPN and then RN. As my career developed, I found myself working in the Quality Department with a focus on Neurology & Emergency Medicine where I established a Sepsis Program and served as the Sepsis Coordinator for 4 years. I have overseen the Stroke Program & quality improvement initiatives for the stroke patients we serve for the past 7 years. where I am responsible for DNV Stroke accreditation, data abstraction, community outreach, collaboration with EMS for education & training. During this time, I have earned both my MSN and SCRN.
