Summary
Since completing my graduate nursing program, I have worked as a Registered Nurse in the Goulburn Community Health Nursing team.
I have also assisted the Goulburn Child and Family nurses with their immunisation clinics in the cottage and at the various high schools.
My aim is to gain permanent employment within the Goulburn-based Public Health team as an Immunisation nurse.
This is my main area of interest and I believe that my skills, qualifications and experience qualify me for the role.
