Jennifer Ejiofor, MSN RN

Jennifer Ejiofor is an accomplished operating room nurse at UPMC Presbyterian in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she serves as both a circulating and scrub nurse on the general, trauma, and oncology surgical teams. In her role, she conducts thorough preoperative assessments, ensures all surgical equipment and supplies are properly prepared, and coordinates care across multidisciplinary teams. Whether maintaining the sterile field, passing instruments, or assisting surgeons directly, Jennifer brings precision, vigilance, and strong clinical judgment to every procedure. Her work is grounded in a deep commitment to patient safety and excellence in perioperative care.

Jennifer’s professional foundation is strengthened by a rich academic background, including a Master of Science in Nursing from La Roche University and a Bachelor of Science in Interdisciplinary Studies from Waynesburg University. Before pursuing nursing full-time, she gained valuable experience in administrative operations at Neta Scientific, where she honed organizational and customer service skills that continue to support her work in fast-paced clinical settings. Her ability to think quickly, communicate effectively, and adapt under pressure has made her a trusted member of the surgical team.

Beyond her clinical responsibilities, Jennifer is dedicated to service and global health outreach. She volunteered in Patzún, Guatemala, working alongside Catholic nuns to support children in an orphanage, remodel the facility, and assist with educational activities. She also provided hands-on medical support during cleft lip, cleft palate, and hernia surgeries, as well as in an emergency room setting where she performed key patient care tasks. This experience continues to inspire her commitment to compassionate, patient-centered care both locally and abroad.
