Summary

A current graduate Registered Nurse working within the Perioperative Unit at the Townsville University Hospital. With 4 months experience in scrub and scout. I have been able to gain knowledge in surgical procedures, documentation and effectively communicate within team. As a new nurse I am eager to expand and take on all knowledge and experience and am a perfect candidate for the hospital as my limited experience allows me to work even harder whilst learning how to improve everyday. The Hospital will be able to shape me to the high level as expected from every Registered Nurse.
