Summary

In my current work experiences and through the studies specialising in the Health Care Industry, I have been placed in demanding environments in which critical thinking, great understanding, compassion, and empathy were required while focusing on patient welfare and safety. I am an active member of multidisciplinary teams but can also work independently to achieve tasks in a timely manner. I currently work on a busy acute 36 bed ward specialising in Respiratory, Endocrinology and Gastroenterology, I have worked face-to-face with patients, customers, and clients in a variety of different environments. Through this and my studies I have become an enthusiastic, hardworking, and reliable person who strives to do their best and work at the highest standard possible. I enjoy being an advocate for my patients and their families, working as part of a multidisciplinary team and in a challenging environment.
