Participating in Ramsay Healthcare's new graduate program in Theatres at St. George Private Hospital in NSW, I have gained valuable experience in both Scrub/Scout and PACU through two six-month rotations. With a strong focus on attention to detail, I offer hands-on experience in hospital environments and various healthcare settings. Building rapport with patients and their families comes naturally to me, and I am skilled in understanding and evaluating patient care, conducting initial assessments, administering medications, handling emergencies, and providing health education. My compassionate nature, extensive knowledge of anatomy and physiology, nursing fundamentals, and medical terminology make me a caring and competent nurse. Thriving in team-oriented environments, I am known for reliability, clear communication skills (both verbal and written), and sound clinical judgment. Completing my studies in Cairns, QLD, but now needing to relocate due to my partner's career in the Australian Defence Force, I believe I am an ideal candidate for this position. We have made the decision to move back to our hometown due to emergent circumstances that require my partner to be stationed permanently in Cairns. Although I have been working in the hospital setting for the past year, I have also been working casually in the community doing support work- providing assistance to my clients with their needs at home and in the community.
