Professional Summary
I love nursing . I have been out for 3 years . I stayed home and took the opportunity God gave me to take care of my mother when she had a stroke and needed to be in a nursing home . I wanted to be there every second for her in every way . I know that is why God made me a nurse was to be able to give my love to my family and well as strangers. My mom passed away in September so I'm looking to get back into the workforce. I would love to be part of your team. I'm an excellent team player and I nurse with my whole heart and head. I truly believe you need compassion to be a nurse . I look forward to hearing from you. God bless . Skills
