She has since undertaken a Master of Science degree and been appointed a peer reviewer for an international palliative care journal. She said there were many skills nurses require and was not a job you can "just do". The registered nurse said: "I love that nursing has not only given me the chance to care for patients and their relatives, but has provided me with the opportunity to be a listener, an advocate, an educator, and a mentor.
