Summary
Worked as SEN general nurse after qualifying in the RAF, due to marriage and husbands postings worked in various settings, always preferring elderly care.
Settled in Darlington and worked at St Johns Nursing Home, I particularly enjoyed my employment here. I cross converted to Registered Mental Health Nurse and moved on to work on Oak Ward West Park Hospital until recent retirement this September.
I have been well respected by both patients and multi disciplinary team, I am hard working and caring.
Since retirement I particularly wish to return to care work hands on one to without staff nurse responsibilities
