Clinically, I have provided advanced oncology nursing care including uterovaginal brachytherapy support, managed complex wound care and long-term resident care, and performed diagnostic testing with strict biosafety compliance.
I bring cross-disciplinary collaboration, process optimization, and data-driven decision-making, complemented by postgraduate training in healthcare services management and business management.
