Rachel Njeri Mbuthia

Kenya Registered Community Health Nurse

What type of job are you looking for?

I am looking for a nursing job, preferably in a busy hospital of acute setting.

What languages do you speak (and at what level)?

English-Very good Swahili-Very Good

What State are you looking to work in and why?

I am not specific on States, but preferably one whose cost of living is not too high

What field do you currently work in?

Medical/Surgical out-patient

What fields have you worked in before?

Obstetrics/Gynaecology

What qualifications do you hold?

Diploma in Kenya Registered Community Health Nursing (KRCHN) Certificate in Integrated Prevention, Treatment and Mangement of HIV/AIDS

Which do you consider more valuable? Formal education or skills and why?

They are equally valuable. You need the formal education to provide you with the knowledge on issues, and the skills to apply to the knowldge gained from the formal education. They should go together.

Describe the benefits of working with others

Working with others creates a good inter-personal relation between people. One is able to understand people better, that is, their ways of life, beliefs, etc Working with others also helps because people can share ideas on issues

Describe the benefits of working alone

One is able to concentrate on what they love to do, therefore the results of their work should be as good as they want it to be. Working alone also helps a person to realise/discover their interests on the area of the work.

What was your worst working experience?

When I was doing my Rural Experience, I happened to be in a health centre, the largest in that rural town. During that month,there was a huge shortage of vaccines due to very bad weather that made transportation almost impossible. It was quite difficult trying to convince the mothers of children below the age of five, who had brought their children for the isual immunization programme.We were forced to refer the mothers to a health centre that was quite far but had a good stock of vaccines. A week later though, the health centre was re-stocked with all the vaccines and work continued as usual.

What is the most important lesson you have learnt throughout your career?

I have learnt to treat people exactly the way I would want to be treated. It always feels great when a patient or their relative returns to you to say "Thankyou" for the services rendered to them.

What unique skills do you have?

I love Graphology (The science of analysing handwriting) I have good listening skills and I love writing too.

What would you consider as your 'dream job'?

Ever since I was about 12 years old, I dreamed of being a nurse. I am now a nurse and I do not dream about changing my career. I love it.

What are the most interesting aspects of your field?

Health Education is one of the things I do on a regular basis to patients I come across. It is always good to pass some knowledge onto someone else since it has proved to me that it is a great way of preventing/controlling illness

What are the least interesting aspects of your field?

Breaking bad news to a relative, especially death.

Where do you see yourself in 10 years?

I see myself as a leading healthcare provider, creating health awareness programmes especially on preventable diseases/illnesses. It pains me, seeing people die of diseases that are easily preventable.
