Susan Wanjiku Kamande

I am a licensed nurse with competence in providing patients with high-quality care. I have professional experience in triage, post-operative recovery as well as emergency care. I am also equipped with solid knowledge of medicine, pharmacology, and care standards in a hospital setting. Additionally, I have a proven track record of building trusting relationships between patients and medical personnel while devoted to boosting patients' comfort and understanding during treatment. My goal is to further my nursing career, which will make use of the information and abilities I've acquired throughout my three and a half years of education at Kenya Medical Training College- Mwingi Campus.
