A highly skilled and compassionate Pediatric trained nurse with 16 years of career experience in multiple Paediatric settings, including PICU, Medical and Surgical ward, research and as an Asthma and Allergy clinical nurse specialist in the current role with excellent communication and critical thinking skills. I was nominated for Learning from Excellence for excellent teamwork and communication within two months after I have joined in my current role. I am a good communicator and work adeptly in team environments and also independent displaying strong leadership and mentoring abilities with a Masters degree in Healthcare management and mentorship qualification. I am good at time management and responsive to change with a record of promoting services, increasing personal and professional standards and managing busy care loads. I am a conscientious, hard-working, highly motivated, always punctual, patient-focused with proven clinical and interpersonal skills. I am a calm and gentle person that makes me the right person to work with children and families.

The experience I have gained from my PICU role and the European Paediatric Advanced Life Support Course (EPALS) has helped me to handle the emergency situation appropriately and efficiently. The knowledge and experience I gained from my MBA and mentorship courses have improved my leadership skills and help me to be an advocate for the patient and the family. The aggression and violence course has helped me to deal with families who are anxious and to help them before they become angry and unmanageable.

With all these qualities and experience I gained over these years I will be able to support the children and family and provide holistic care to them in all circumstances. I hope these experiences and qualification make me the right person for this job. HIGHLIGHTS
