About the author
Theatre Nurse
I am a 24-year-old Theatre Nurse working at the Royal Cornwall Hospital NHS trust. I specialise in general and emergency, but often rotate between theatres. In late 2018 I moved to the UK from New Zealand. In New Zealand I worked as a RN at Skin Institute, a private skin cancer, cosmetic, and dermatology clinic. In the future I would like to start my own clinic in cosmetic medicine. I am also passionate about international nursing and helping other nurses come to the UK.
