Hi, I am Gretchen, a newcomer nurse from the Philippines. I have varied work experiences with all age groups, and as a trained nurse, my ultimate goal is to provide quality and holistic care to my patients and their families. I have worked locally in my native country as well as abroad, and these experiences equipped me with the necessary skills and knowledge that are vital in delivering the care that my patients need. I have good communication skills, willing to be trained, eager to learn and can be a good team member. I am looking forward to connecting with employers and to be able to learn more about this very rewarding career.
