Provided high-quality personal care and support to elderly residents in a residential aged care setting, ensuring dignity, comfort, and safety in accordance with individualised care plans and aged care quality standards.

I had experience in oncology and the ICU ward throughout my placement under supervision, conducted patient assessments, monitored observations, and contributed to applying NMBA RN standards to clinical decision-making and delegation. Engaged in interprofessional collaboration, communicating changes in patient status, and escalating concerns appropriately.
