Summary

With previous experience in aged care and in the private hospital setting, as well as the previous experience from my previous placements, I can thrive in high-pressure environments. I am up to date on most procedures and policies, and I have a passion for learning. My rural placement has allowed me to become resourceful, adaptable, and calm in emergency situations.

I strive to be educated on the treatments I'm providing, empathetic and understanding to patients and families, and competent and confident in my abilities.
