Summary
Licensed Registered Nurse with 12 years of professional nursing experience. Because I support the definition of nursing as simply the respect for human dignity, four core values are always maintained to the highest regard and reflected in my work; caring, integrity, equality, and distinction. I am seeking to grow in cooperation with a reputable facility that has an evident commitment to patient safety and offers career growth opportunities to employees.
