Lauren Sharp, RN brings experience and a kind, upbeat spirit that is appreciated by everyone who meets her. She earned her Associate of Applied Science in Nursing Degree in December of 2017. While she studied to become a nurse, she also worked as a nursing assistant at Decatur Morgan Hospital. As soon as she completed her training, the hospital hired Lauren in her new capacity as a registered nurse to care for patients on its medical surgical floor. There she gained a wide range of experience. A few of her responsibilities included balancing the needs of multiple patients, delivering medications, providing post-operative care, and attending to wound care. In the summer of 2020, she joined Light Facial Plastic Surgery as a laser and cosmetic nurse. Lauren is certified to operate the CoolSculpting platform and the personal rejuvenation system for women called Votiva. She also assists Dr. Light during treatments which range from Botox and filler injections to more involved, in-office treatments such as FaceTite and BodyTite.
Lauren knew from a young age that nursing was her ideal career. She enjoys caring for people and encouraging them through life’s medical challenges. The intensity of Lauren’s years working in the hospital sharpened her ability to learn quickly and stay focused for long hours. Now she is ready to appreciate the interpersonal and relationship-building experiences that naturally occur in the friendly and pleasant environment of the Light Facial Plastic Surgery office. Her presence is kind and comforting and will be an asset to staff and patients alike.
