What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I can continue to grow in patient care, contribute to a supportive team, and make a positive impact on patients' lives.

I am a committed and hardworking individual with a strong focus on providing exceptional patient care. My journey in the healthcare field began with my education at the National College of Professional Studies, where I honed my skills in Allied Health and Geriatric Nursing. I have successfully completed my NVQJ Level 2 in this field, along with certifications in CPR and Patient Care. My educational background, combined with practical experience, has equipped me with the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in caregiving roles.

Throughout my career, I have worked in various healthcare settings, including nursing homes and early childhood institutions. My roles as a Patient Caregiver and Assistant Teacher have allowed me to develop a patient-focused approach, ensuring that all individuals under my care receive the highest quality treatment. I am passionate about promoting a safe and supportive environment for both patients and colleagues, and I strive to contribute positively to the overall productivity of any organization I am part of.
