Lena Oliveros

Assistant Teaching Professor
Clinical Lead - Pediatric Acute Care Nurse Practitioner DNP Program

My career in pediatrics began in 2013 as a nurse in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). I graduated with my MSN in 2016 and started my current role as a nurse practitioner at Seattle Children’s PICU in 2017. My clinical interests include interprofessional education and teamwork, quality improvement, and equitable care for patients with limited English proficiency. The opportunity to teach in a new acute care program is particularly exciting to me, and I’m honored to help build the next generation of acute care pediatric nurse practitioners.
