Summary

Over the last four years of my nursing career I have worked as an IVF nurse at Adora Fertility in Greensborough. I am always making sure I am expanding my practical experience, knowledge and skills at the same time as providing quality health care to people. I have the ability to learn quickly and always welcome constructive feedback for continuous improvement. I am an organized, friendly, empathetic and collaborative individual who is willing to learn in any environment.
