@bukolaonifade
Compassionate registered nurse and midwife specializing in maternal and neonatal care.
What I'm looking for
I am a Registered Nurse and Midwife with hands-on clinical experience across ICU, surgical wards, and maternal-newborn care, dedicated to delivering evidence-based nursing and improving patient outcomes.
I have led an ICU unit, coordinated multidisciplinary care plans, and supported emergency stabilization and life-saving interventions while managing unit resources and mentoring staff.
My clinical strengths include neonatal and post-natal care, paediatric nursing, post-operative management, wound care, IV therapy, and EMR documentation, highlighted by a Best Nursing Presentation Award in 2023.
I prioritize patient and family education, advocacy, and collaborative care, and I seek opportunities where I can continue to grow clinically and contribute to high-quality, patient-centered care.
