@emilya1
Dedicated nursing student with hands-on clinical experience and leadership skills.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate nursing student currently pursuing my Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Laurentian University. My journey in healthcare has been enriched by various leadership roles, including serving as the Activity Coordinator for the Nursing Student Council and Treasurer for the Interprofessional Health Council. These experiences have honed my organizational and communication skills, enabling me to effectively advocate for my peers and contribute positively to the university community.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I have gained substantial hands-on experience through clinical placements in diverse settings, including pediatrics, psychiatry, and maternity care. My role as a Care Aide at Montfort Hospital has further solidified my commitment to patient care, where I provide essential support during acute medical situations. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am dedicated to ensuring patient dignity and safety while delivering high-impact care.
As I continue my education, I am eager to expand my clinical skills and contribute to a healthcare team that prioritizes compassionate care and patient well-being. I believe in the importance of holistic approaches to health and wellness, and I am committed to making a meaningful impact in the lives of those I serve.
