What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to leverage my extensive nursing experience while contributing to patient education and community health initiatives.

I am a dedicated nursing professional with over three decades of experience in various healthcare settings. My journey began at the Medical Training Centre, where I honed my skills as a Community Nurse. Since then, I have worked in diverse roles, including Chief Nurse Supervisor during the Ebola crisis in Liberia and as a school nurse at Kilimani Junior Academy, where I provided critical care and counseling to students.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to improving patient outcomes through effective communication, organization, and leadership. I have managed outpatient services, conducted well-baby clinics, and provided psychological support to patients in challenging situations. My ability to work collaboratively with healthcare teams and my passion for patient education have been key to my success in delivering high-quality care.
