What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers hands-on nursing experience and opportunities for professional growth in a supportive environment.

I am a motivated and dependable college student pursuing a Practical Nursing Diploma at Portage College. My background includes valuable experience in customer service, the labor industry, and healthcare settings. I am eager to gain hands-on experience and contribute to a dynamic team, particularly in nursing roles.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various positions, including as a Grocery Cashier at Four Rivers Co-op, where I honed my cash handling and customer service skills. More recently, I served as a Mill Clean-up worker at LNM Lumber Ltd., where I prioritized safety and efficiency in a fast-paced environment. My most significant experience has been as a Student Practical Nurse at William J. Cadzow Healthcare Center, where I delivered patient-centered care across diverse clinical settings, collaborated with interdisciplinary teams, and maintained high standards of safety and infection control.
