@emilyngaku
Registered Nurse skilled in telehealth, research, and medical writing, delivering compassionate, evidence-based patient care.
What I'm looking for
I am a Registered Nurse with a solid background in clinical care, community health, and telehealth services, passionate about improving patient outcomes through both in-person and remote healthcare delivery. My career has included providing patient assessments, administering treatments, and offering health education in diverse settings, from local clinics to virtual consultations.
Beyond bedside care, I have expertise in medical research, report writing, and health content creation, enabling me to bridge the gap between clinical knowledge and public health communication. I’ve contributed to evidence-based projects, patient education materials, and medical documentation that have supported both healthcare teams and patient understanding.
I am adaptable, detail-oriented, and technology-savvy, skilled in using EMR systems, telemedicine platforms, and remote monitoring tools. My interests include public health advocacy, global healthcare access, and continuous professional development—with a special focus on innovations that make quality healthcare more accessible in underserved communities.
