Registered Nurse

Hello, my name is Victory, I am a qualified nurse and I am passionate about providing quality care at excellent standards for residents. I have been working for Barchester Healthcare since June 2022.

The team at Ashby is one of the best I have worked with, and I am grateful for the love and support I receive from the management and colleagues in my job role.

Before June 2022, I worked as a nurse in my home country for some years, serving as a registered nurse, registered midwife, and West African licenced public health nurse. I hold a bachelor's degree in nursing, and my passion for learning drives me to continually update my knowledge and research.

I have a passion and a call to care for the elderly, and I feel fulfilled doing my job.  I am committed to delivering person-centred care for each resident and reassuring their relatives. It is also a pleasure supporting my colleagues and using my strengths to enhance the lives of all we care for.
