What I'm looking for
I am a competent nurse-midwife with a Diploma in Nursing and Midwifery and additional dialysis training from Muhimbili National Hospital. I have practical experience across medical, surgical, pediatric, obstetric, ICU, emergency, psychiatric and community health settings.
During clinical placements and work I supervised colleagues, provided antenatal, labor and postnatal care, family planning counseling, immunizations and HIV care at treatment centres, and rotated through operating theatres and intensive care units. I also conducted research on factors affecting uptake of voluntary counselling and testing for HIV.
I work collaboratively, bring strong patient counseling and clinical skills, and am proficient in basic computer applications to support documentation and reporting. I am ready to contribute reliable, patient-centered care within a health team.
