Bega

Summary

Dedicated and highly compassionate Registered Nurse with over two years of hands-on clinical experience on surgical ward at South East Regional Hospital in Bega. Throughout this time, I have delivered holistic, patient-centred care in both acute and post-operative settings, while enhancing advanced skills in medication administration, wound management, pre- and post-op assessment, and collaborating with multidisciplinary team.

With over 800 hours of clinical placements completed across major NSW hospitals including surgical, ICU, haemodialysis, gastroenterology, cardiology, mental health, community nursing, I bring a strong foundation in a range of nursing areas from acute to complex care. I have been involved in team leadership responsibilities, contributing to smooth running of ward, supporting clinical handovers, and promoting safe, collaborative practices on the ward.

Currently pursuing to relocate to Victoria, I am enthusiastic about the opportunity to join Western Health and continue contributing to excellent patient outcomes while advancing into more learning opportunities to enhance my skills and knowledge. I am AHPRA registered, fully vaccinated, and committed to ongoing professional development and evidence-based practice.
