NOKWANDA MAPHUMULO

Hands-on, dedicated individual looking to expand my dietetics experience and clinical skills. I am passionate and self-motivated with one year of experience (2023) as the only dietitian in a district hospital. Detail oriented,composed and a reliable leader, I work well in a team and independently,with confidence in myself as an individual and a professional, I display compassion to build client relations and trust. I am a creative and adaptable problem-solver, and I love to seek out learning opportunities through fellow dietitians and colleagues, and engaging with evidence-based literature, as I strive towards continuous growth.
