"I treat every patient and colleague as a person and always put myself in their shoes and do for them as I would want done to me. These are values that were instilled in me by my parents growing up and I would carry forward as a Band 7 theatre nurse. I would continue to embrace the NHS's culture of addressing discrimination among my team and holding staff accountable for inclusion initiatives here. I think my coaching and experiences would be beneficial in this role here. Over the last nine years of my career, I've cared for patients of Polish, Indian, Italian, Portuguese, and Pakistani descent to name a few. No matter what a patient's background was, I looked to understand their needs and the best way to care for them no matter what."
