Summary

I am currently a 2nd year Bachelor of Nursing student at the University of the Sunshine Coast. I have completed my first clinical placement in aged care and am about to begin my second placement. I'm passionate about providing safe, respectful, and person-centered care, and I thrive both independently and in team environments. I'm eager to further develop my nursing skills through an AIN role, where I can apply my caring and positive nature, nursing skills, strong willingness to learn, and commitment to delivering high-quality patient-centered care, as I continue my journey in nursing.
