Overview and summary

I am recognised for my ability to be a team player who believes in empowering people. I am passionate in helping patients by delivering quality health and nursing care that enhances the wellbeing and quality of life of my patients.

I am a recently qualified registered nurse that has over 4 years working experience in an aged care environment and am now looking to secure work as a full time registered nurse. I am wholly educated in Australia and have received two academic awards whilst studying in Notre Dame University.

During my clinical placements, I have received positive feedback on my skills in wound care management and possess strong clinical observation skills when assisting patients with their activity in daily living (ADLs). I have been practicing safe medication administration to over 30 patients in a shift.

I am a reliable, ethical health care provider with the ability to stay calm, intervene during crisis, and collaborate effectively with patients, family members, physicians and other medical professionals.

I have developed high quality communication skills working as a care worker for the past 4 years and now working for a nursing agency as a Registered nurse, have hands on practice in caring for critically ill patients.
