What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges me and supports my growth in public health and nursing.

I am a Registered Nurse with years of experience across various nursing disciplines, including Midwifery, Intensive Care, and Public Health initiatives. My solid academic background, complemented by hands-on involvement in meaningful health services, has equipped me with the skills necessary to excel in clinical settings and non-governmental organizations.

Currently, I serve as a Senior Nursing Officer in the Intensive Care Unit at Abubakar Tafawa Balewa University Teaching Hospital, where I assess patient conditions, implement care plans, and collaborate with healthcare teams to ensure optimal patient outcomes. My previous roles have included providing care in COVID-19 isolation centers and supervising community health initiatives, showcasing my commitment to public health and community mobilization.

I am seeking a challenging position that fosters both organizational and personal development, allowing me to leverage my skills in nursing and public health to make a significant impact in the healthcare sector.
