Summary

I am an empathetic, compassionate and skilled care worker with experience in providing care and support to the elderly. I'm currently undertaking a Bachelor of Nursing degree at the University of Newcastle. I am wanting to branch out to community care as my passion is the elderly and once finished with my degree I am hoping to gain employment as an RN in a community setting. It brings me great joy and satisfaction in being able to assist the elderly in maintaining their independence for as long as possible. I believe that everyone should be able to age with dignity, respect and if your able to in the comfort of your own home with some additional support if needed.
