About Daina S.

I am a mature skilled nurse, confident, and competent RGN with over twenty-one years’ experience of working in both care homes and in clients homes. I excel in care of the elderly, dementia care, learning disabilities, neurological conditions, challenging behaviour, PEG care and PEG management, tracheostomy care, catheter care and end of life care. I have knowledge of patient care, diagnosis, and treatment of chronic, acute, and long-term health issues. Furthermore, I am knowledgeable in medication administration and staff supervisions and appraisals. I am looking for a position that will enable me to apply my nursing knowledge and skills whilst contributing to the team in delivering safe, effective, and person-centred care.
