I am a children’s and general trained nurse who qualified in January of this year and is currently working on an orthopaedic ward in Crumlin Children’s Hospital. I have studied children’s nursing in UCD for the last 4.5 years and so have multiple years experience in looking after sick children. I’ve minded newborn babies right up to 18 year olds some with behavioural and intellectual difficulties and so am equipped to deal with challenging behaviours if necessary!
