I had applied for staff RN, but the job description is presently being changed to a combination supervisor/admission/discharge RN which is not the position I had been seeking.

Therefore I am job hunting for either hospice nurse and/or wound nurse; since these are the areas where I feel closer to the patient and where I believe I can have a more personal impact.

• Provided emotional support to patients during challenging times, fostering a sense of trust and rapport that contributed to better overall wellbeing.
• Enhanced patient satisfaction through effective communication, empathy, and timely response to their needs.
