Summary
Dedicated, compassionate, and hardworking Primary Care Paramedic graduate with strong patient care skills and six years of experience as a first responder. What I lack in skill I more than make up for in my willingness to learn. I am committed to providing high quality patient care. I am eager to obtain my paramedic license and be able to provide care to patients across the province.
