What I'm looking for

I seek a fast-paced hospital nursing role where I can expand clinical experience, contribute to multidisciplinary teams, and support patient recovery while pursuing continued professional development.

I am a licensed Kenyan Registered Nurse & Midwife with hands-on experience in busy medical-surgical wards, delivering compassionate, patient-centered care and coordinating multidisciplinary treatment plans.

I have worked at Kiambu Level V County Referral Hospital and Coptic Mission Hospital, managing complex medical and critical-care patients, monitoring vitals, interpreting diagnostics, and responding to life-saving situations.

My practice emphasizes infection prevention, thorough documentation, wound and catheter care, intravenous medication administration, and development of individualized nursing care plans while mentoring students and collaborating with clinical teams.

I am motivated to grow professionally in a fast-paced hospital environment where I can contribute clinical expertise, maintain high standards of integrity, and support patient recovery and organizational success.
