Lucy Van Niekerk
Enrolled Nurse (SANC: 16779373)
Sasolburg
Summary
Caring Nurse with 6 years of experience in diverse healthcare organization working with geriatric,disabled,chronic,neonatal,ICU,maternity etc. patients, all with a variety of specialized healthcare needs. Adept at introducing detailed care plans and coordinating patient care through interdisciplinary collaboration. Demonstrated expertise in physical, psychosocial, developmental and educational aspects of nursing care for all patients and families.
I am currently awaiting my SANC registration as an EN, and not a PN, as I did not do a Community service year. I completed my theoretical section within the prescribed 4 years of BCur. However in 2020 I was unable to work on my practical hours as I was at risk with being an asthmatic. I then continued my practical hours in 2021 and 2022 and made the decision that I will not be enrolling in my community service year which is needed to be registered as a PN. With that said I do have all of the requirements and knowledge of that of a PN and feel that you can truly benefit from offering me this position.
For any enquiry feel free to contact me.
Thank you
