@gideonogunwale
Dual-registered RGN/RMN nurse delivering integrated person-centred care across physical and mental health, especially in complex care settings.
What I'm looking for
I am a dual-registered RGN/RMN with a strong commitment to delivering integrated, person-centred care across both physical and mental health needs. Rooted in compassion and a genuine passion for nursing, I bring enthusiasm, resilience, and a holistic approach focused on dignity, empathy, and individualised support.
I deliver high-dependency mental health care for severe and enduring needs, using structured risk management, therapeutic engagement, and de-escalation to promote safety and recovery. I also provide complex care in patients’ own homes, supporting children and adults with high-dependency physical conditions through specialist procedures, careful monitoring, and escalation when needed.
Across intensive care, complex neuro-disabilities, and complex physical needs, I’ve built confidence with medication administration (including controlled drugs and psychotropic medication), enteral feeding (PEG/NG), injections, ventilation support, tracheostomy care, catheter care, central lines, TPN, suctioning, wound dressings, infection control, and robust documentation.
I strive to promote safety, autonomy, and quality of life for every individual under my care, working collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams and using trauma-informed, least restrictive approaches. Known for hard-working reliability and patient-centred outcomes, I’m particularly interested in complex care settings where I can make a meaningful impact.
