Summary

With strong clinical reasoning skills, I perform thorough assessments to identify critical conditions, initiate appropriate interventions, and escalate care as necessary. My practice is based on high-quality, evidence-based emergency nursing, aimed at consistently improving patient outcomes through efficient triaging and compassionate, individualised care.

As a member of the Medical Emergency Team (MET), ALS and PAED trained, and confident in ECAT, I am well-equipped to handle acute, rapidly evolving situations for both adult and paediatric patients. I work closely with medical officers and multidisciplinary teams to stabilise patients and implement comprehensive care plans, supporting optimal management of diverse conditions in the Emergency Department. In my team leader role, I coordinate patient flow by managing bed allocations, admissions, and discharges, reducing wait times and optimising department capacity.

I serve as a resource for colleagues by sharing clinical expertise, facilitating educational opportunities, and mentoring new nurses and students. I promote a safe environment through regular QARS auditing, infection control adherence and equipment maintenance, and contribute to a positive work culture by engaging in team-building, providing feedback, and fostering a supportive atmosphere for both patients and staff.
