What I'm looking for
I am a Bachelor of Science in Nursing graduate from the University of Embu with over two years of hands-on nursing experience across referral hospitals, community health centers, and medical clinics. I have worked as a Nursing Officer in medical-surgical departments and completed an internship at a county hospital where I rotated through medical, surgical, maternity, pediatric, and outpatient units, contributing to emergency procedures, medication administration, wound care, and patient education.
I am pursuing a Master of Public Health to deepen my impact on health systems and policy, and I have led research on patient satisfaction that earned a Best Student in Research award. I bring clinical competence, mentorship experience, research skills (SPSS), and a commitment to improving healthcare quality, community outreach, and training future nurses.
