SUMMARY
My role as a nurse is to provide compassionate and competent care to patients. I analyze and monitor their health, write prescriptions, administer treatments and operations, and teach them how to control their ailments. I also collaborate with other healthcare experts to ensure that each patient's care plan is tailored to their specific needs. In addition, because hospitalization and illness can be unpleasant and exhausting, I provide emotional support to patients and their families. My ultimate goal is to promote health and well- being and to assist patients in getting the best results possible. EXPERIENCE
