Summary

As a Registered nurse I'm working with an agency nurse group specialising in work in acute hospitals across Sydney, in surgical and orthopaedic. This has given me plenty of experiences to learn new skills and improve my skills in leadership and in clinical areas.

I also have gained experience working with varied health conditions, including medical, cardiac and stroke, brain injury, parkinsonism and of course the post-operative patients.

Utilizing my skills from college and university I have been able to provide exceptional care that enables my patients to fully recover before being discharged back to their communities.

Health educating, health awareness and prevention is what I consider an important aspect which I provide in my daily nursing role.

I relish new opportunities to expand my clinical knowledge then seek to implement that knowledge.

In my nursing practice I place strong emphasis on patient care and clinical skills.

I've consistently have worked collaboratively within multidisciplinary teams, adapting to changing situations with ease.

I relish new opportunities to improve my communication and to learn new skills in communicating to enhance patient outcomes, including relating to culturally diverse background cultures, stroke affected patients and those with hearing impairment or visually impaired.
