Precious B

I am an honest, reliable person with a good record of timekeeping and attendance. I am a dedicated and motivated registered nurse and I can work on my own and as part of a team. I have gained experience with common procedures required by today's nursing staff including moving and handling training, drug administration and emergency life support.

I am a person-focused individual who takes great care with record keeping, I am extremely motivated to learn more and develop, as I know nursing in itself as a career is evolving. I cope brilliantly under pressure and thrive off new challenges and opportunities. I am also a trustworthy individual with a great passion for delivering the highest standards of care.

I am keen to excel and advance my career in a dynamic healthcare environment.
