What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a DHA-compliant role where I can lead nursing operations, deliver emergency-ready care, and strengthen student and staff wellbeing through health education, safety initiatives, and strong clinical documentation.

I am a highly skilled and compassionate Registered Nurse with over 23 years of diverse experience across emergency care, hospital settings, and school health services. I deliver high-quality patient care, perform complex medical procedures, and stay focused on compliance with Dubai Health Authority (DHA) regulations.

Currently, I serve as Lead School Nurse in Dubai, overseeing clinic operations, health education, and safety initiatives for students and staff. I provide first aid, manage immunization and medical records, submit DHA statistics reports, formulate school and medical policies under DHA guidance, and lead Infection Control and Safeguarding efforts while supporting a School Nurses Network of 140 members through mentorship and professional development.

Before this role, I worked as a Staff Nurse across a specialty hospital, primary care, and emergency settings, assisting physicians and delivering care such as oxygen therapy, nebulization, suctioning, ECG taking, CPR, and defibrillation. I also contributed to nursing education as a Clinical Instructor, teaching and supervising students in operating theater procedures and perioperative patient care.
