Summary

Over ten years experience working in various health care settings. Four years were spent working as a personal support worker at Bobby's Hospice and on the float team at the Saint John Regional Hospital on varying units. Post graduation from my Practical Nurse Diploma program, I continued to work as a Licensed Practical Nurse at Bobby's Hospice for an additional seven years. Over the past nine years since completing my LPN program, I have also worked in various speciality areas including Family Medicine, Long Term Care, Primary Care, Oncology and most recently Hemodialysis.
