About Charnelle

Hello, I am a recent RN to BSN graduate seeking new opportunities. I am interested and experienced in a multitude of settings. I am eager to learn and willing to train.

I am caring, compassionate, reliable, punctual and after all I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant long before becoming a Registered Nurse, it is how I knew immediately nursing was my calling.
