Summary

I am a Bachelor of Science in Nursing student who is expected to complete all requirements for graduation by April, 2024. I am currently employed by NL Health Services as a Licensed Practical Nurse at the Waterford Hospital and am looking forward to embarking on a new chapter in my career as a Registered Nurse. I am very passionate about psychiatric nursing and have experience in caring for patients with complex psychiatric diagnoses in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I also have experience on various medical/surgical units through completing clinical courses.
