Summary
As a registered nurse, I have committed myself the care of my patients, and am extremely proud of the career I have chosen and the progression I have made within the profession. I have found a passion in nursing and would like to extend my passion further by advancing my skills and knowledge in the nursing field through the role of an acute care nurse practitioner. I have gained lots of knowledge in my current field and in the acute care setting, and have now pursued an education as an acute care nurse practitioner to continue the care of the critically ill from a different role in the nursing field.
