My name is Nnedimma Orji, and I am a 24-year-old student nurse. I left Nigeria in 2023 during my 4th year in the University, with hopes of completing my nursing degree as a transfer student at the University of Calgary by fall of next year. I have a strong passion for helping people, particularly the vulnerable sector, aiming to provide them with as much quality life as possible. I understand that client-based care is a nurse's priority, and I have consistently implemented this in my practice as a caregiver over the years. Additional skills I possess include excellent communication, optimism, and a willingness to learn and adapt in an ever-changing environment.
