Bandana Ghimire

I'm a dedicated and compassionate Registered Nurse with 4 years of frontline clinical experience in trauma and emergency nursing at the National Trauma Centre, Nepal. I'm skilled in delivering high-quality patient-centred care under high-pressure conditions, with hands-on expertise in trauma assessment, emergency triage, post-operative monitoring, and multidisciplinary team collaboration. I've recently relocated to the United Kingdom and eager to contribute to bringing strong clinical foundations, a commitment to continuous professional development, and adaptability to evidence-based UK nursing practice.
