Summary

As a newly qualified Nurse, I am passionate about caring for adults, young children, and children. Nursing is one of the highest forms of expression of the sanctity and dignity of human lives. Nursing in its varied forms is, therefore, indispensable in healthcare delivery. As a person, I believe in directly impacting the welfare and dignity and improving the quality of life of human beings; I have an enthusiastic desire to pursue a career in nursing. I have always aspired to be a nurse who will give care to people and support them to regain their independence. The combined qualifications I have received over the years will help me learn and progress well with this opportunity. Being a newly qualified Nurse with the grade I received, I strive to learn more clinical skills in the community where I desire to work.

A well-organised and result-oriented individual with excellent experience in caring for people. Highly sociable, competent, extremely patient, kind, and understanding. I am an enthusiastic, positive-minded, and energetic individual looking for a new challenge to develop my career. I work effectively to deliver safe and caring holistic compassionate care to individuals with good interpersonal and communication skills and an excellent record for reliability and punctuality in getting jobs accomplished within strict deadlines and aiming to succeed in every endeavour and challenge.

Seeing this job advertisement with the Nurses Team, I will be pleased to be part of the team to improve good quality of care for individuals in the community and in the comfort of their homes and environments.
