Cynarra's story - a rewarding career in disability nursing

Real Nurse Stories

Cynarra, always knew that she wanted to be a nurse, nursing runs in her blood. Her mum was a nurse and Cynarra grew up with an older sister with complex disability needs. These early influences led Cynarra to follow a career in disability nursing and more recently teaching nurses as a nurse lecturer about how to communicate and care for clients who are living with a disability. Helping them to see the person and learn how to communicate so that as nurses we can understand their needs and how best to support clients living in the community. We talk about the importance of preceptorship, clinical supervision and Cynarra shares her tips for leaving work at work and maintaining her self care away from work. Cynarra has such a lovely gentle personality that she uses to share her knowledge and experience gained in the 8 years that she has been a nurse.
