NURSE UNIT MANAGER
Summary
I have been in the Health Care Profession for over 10yrs and I am looking to try something new. I have been a CNA and from there I got my Practical Nursing License. I went from Floor nurse to supervisor on evening shift to unit manager on day shift. I am hard worker, I come to work on time and give my all at anything I do. I work well with others and I believe in team work. I believe in asking question and not trying to pretend that I know it all. There is all ways something new to learn.
