Rickelle Long
Denzil,Saskatchewan
Summary
My name is Rickelle Long, and I am a nursing student in the SCBScN program in Saskatoon. By the end of April, I will have completed my second year of nursing school and will be moving back to Denzil Sk to work for the spring/summer. I am organized, hardworking, and have good time management skills. Over the past few months, I have been working at the Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon for my clinical hours. I love working and providing care for the patients, and find it is my favorite part of the week. When I come home on the weekends or for breaks, I pick up shifts as a CCA and love working with the residents.
