Tanisha Salim

I want to become a fully qualified Dental Nurse because I enjoy working with and helping people, and I want to build a career where I can make a positive difference. I believe everyone deserves access to good oral healthcare and should feel comfortable and confident when visiting the dentist. My previous babysitting experience has helped me develop patience, responsibility, organisation and a caring approach.

Working in marketing at a law firm has also given me experience communicating with a wide range of people, both online and face-to-face, helping me build confidence and develop strong communication and interpersonal skills. I believe I can bring a friendly and approachable attitude, empathy, excellent communication skills and a genuine willingness to learn. I am excited to develop my knowledge and practical skills, work as part of a professional dental team and grow into a confident and fully qualified Dental Nurse.

I am currently enrolled on the NEBDN Diploma in Dental Nursing course seeking a full-time position with availability to start as soon as possible.
