In my nursing career, I've developed a strong passion for caring for elderly individuals and those facing mental health challenges. I prioritize dignity, respect, and empathy in providing quality care to the elderly, supporting their independence and well-being. Similarly, in mental health settings, I advocate for awareness, reduce stigma, and provide personalized care to empower individuals in their recovery journey. I'm committed to fostering a supportive environment where all patients feel valued and can achieve their best health outcomes.

Working at RAUTA has been an incredibly rewarding experience that has fueled my passion for nursing as a bureau HCA, Every shift is a chance to make a meaningful difference in the lives of individuals facing mental health challenges.
