Registered Nurse delivering compassionate, safe care across diverse clinical settings.
What I'm looking for
I am a compassionate and dedicated Registered Nurse with a Diploma in Nursing and diverse clinical experience across medical, surgical, pediatric, and community health settings. I’m skilled in patient assessment, emergency response, infection prevention, and health education, and I pride myself on being adaptable, detail-oriented, and reliable.
Through rotations across University Teaching Hospital (Theatre/Surgical, Medical & Surgical Ward, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Ophthalmology & ENT) and Chainama and rural attachments like Lungobe Rural Health Post, I’ve strengthened hands-on care—from vital signs monitoring and IV therapy to sterile field maintenance, wound care, and maternal and fetal wellbeing monitoring. I bring patient-centered communication and teamwork into fast-paced, multicultural environments, ready to deliver high-quality care and continuous learning.
