Compassionate Registered Practical Nurse dedicated to pediatric care.

What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to grow in pediatric nursing while providing compassionate care and support to families.

I am a Registered Practical Nurse with a passion for providing compassionate, family-centered care to pediatric patients. My experience spans from infancy through adolescence, where I have honed my skills in performing physical and developmental assessments, administering immunizations, and managing medication. My role at Durham Kidskare has allowed me to develop strong communication and multitasking abilities, ensuring that each child receives the best possible care.

In addition to my nursing experience, I have taken on the role of Volleyball Coach with Durham Attack, where I lead and develop athletes in fundamental skills and techniques. This position has enhanced my leadership and organizational skills, as I create structured practice plans and foster a positive team environment. My clinical externship at Lakeridge Health provided me with hands-on experience in high-acuity settings, further solidifying my commitment to patient care and critical management.
