Menuka Chhetri

I am an enthusiastic and driven nursing student with hands-on experience in clinical placements across acute, surgical, emergency, community, and aged care settings, as well as practical experience as a Personal Care Assistant and Support Worker. I have a strong work ethic and excellent problem-solving skills, with the ability to adapt to fast-paced healthcare environments and deliver safe, patient-centred care.

I am an effective communicator with the ability to build rapport with patients, families, and multidisciplinary healthcare teams. I have experience in assisting with medication administration, wound care, vital signs monitoring, and supporting daily living activities for patients and residents. I demonstrate the ability to provide compassionate care while maintaining safety, infection control, and accurate documentation.

I am seeking a Graduate Nurse position where I can contribute to high-quality patient care, continue to develop my clinical skills, and support the healthcare team. I am committed to ongoing learning and professional development and am ready to embrace the challenges of a graduate nursing role.
