What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me and allows for professional growth in a supportive environment.

My name is Deborah, and I am a registered nurse with a diverse background in healthcare. I have recently obtained a certification as a complementary therapist specializing in kinesiology, which has further enhanced my ability to provide holistic care. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can utilize my quick learning skills and adaptability to make a positive impact.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various healthcare settings, including refugee camps and schools, where I implemented immigration guidelines and developed health protocols. My experience managing a COVID-19 hotline has honed my communication skills, allowing me to provide crucial information and support to individuals during challenging times. I am passionate about patient education and ensuring that individuals receive the best possible care.

As I look to take on a new role, I am eager to grow and contribute to a team that values innovation and compassion in healthcare. I am excited about the opportunity to embrace new challenges and continue making a difference in the lives of others.
