Summary

I am currently a registered nurse working for the Western Sydney Local Health District (Mental Health) who is looking to further increase my skills working alongside children and young adults.

During my new graduate program I was introduced to working alongside young people living with mental health conditions through my rotation at Redbank-Acute Adolescent Unit.

I learned a lot in the six months and am eager to get back into this part of mental health and continue to build my skills and further enhance my nursing skills and abilities hopefully one day soon progressing further.
