What I'm looking for

I seek a role providing trauma/SGBV or emergency nursing in a compassionate, evidence-based program where I can mentor staff and improve patient outcomes.

I am a Kenyan registered nurse with six years of hands-on experience delivering culturally competent, patient-centered care in medical, surgical, trauma and SGBV settings.

At Medecins Sans Frontieres (2022–2025) I provided comprehensive care to trauma and sexual and gender-based violence survivors, supported emergency stabilization, wound management, HIV PEP and psychosocial support, and helped establish trauma and SGBV clinics.

Previously, as a medical-surgical nurse at St Francis Community Hospital (2019–2022), I performed pre- and post-operative care, IV therapies, vital-sign monitoring, infection prevention and collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to improve recovery outcomes and reduce post-operative complications.

I mentor local health workers, contribute to quality-improvement initiatives, and document clinical data for program monitoring — always prioritizing confidentiality, dignity and compassionate evidence-based practice.
