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.
