Summary

I am an Intensive Care unit nurse and graduated from the Nursing program at Centennial College. I am eager to submit my application for the ICU Nursing position with your hospital or organization. As an RN of 15 years, I have experience handling many different types of Intensive Care patients and medical conditions, patient communications, communication with staff, and the most important of medical procedures and terminology. I have a wonderful bedside manner, knowledge of medical procedure, and work well as a part of a hospital staff. I believe in what I do, and I know your hospital does too.
