Summary
I have been a nurse since the beginning of December of 2023. I began working in the Emergency Department at The Moncton City Hospital shortly after I finished school (approximately October of 2023). My work schedule is typically four consecutive 12h shifts and then five days off. I am looking to apply for a new full-time position within Horizon. I look forward to hearing from you
