Summary
I am a compassionate individual who desires to gain and succeed in the future nursing profession. The goal is to support and provide high-quality care for all individuals. I'm recently a former assistant in nursing at Westmead hospital. Along with a supervisor at Rebel Sport. I am looking for an opportunity as a new graduate registered nurse where I can learn and expand my knowledge of clinical and therapeutic skills. My previous 5 years of experience in nursing as an assistant in nursing will assist with adapting to the change as a registered nurse and the responsibilities that come with it.
