Upenyu Mutanga

I am a Registered Adult Nurse with nursing experience across Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Renal, Medical, Orthopaedic, Surgical, Paediatric, and Accident & Emergency departments. I have successfully passed the UK Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) in Adult Nursing. Currently, I am working within the Health and Social Care sector in Leicester UK where I continue providing safe, compassionate, and person-centred care.

I am confident to do clinical assessment, communication, teamwork, and decision-making skills according to NMC guidelines and I am updated with the current NMC guidelines following my OSCE pass in 2025. I am confident to transition my nursing experience here in the UK.
