Waweru Simiyu Nakamya

31 years in oncology nursing

  • 🇰🇪 Nairobi, Nairobi, Kenya
  • Nairobi Community Hospital
  • 2004 to 2023
  • English, Swahili
I've been a nurse for 19 years, most of them in oncology at Nairobi Community Hospital in Nairobi. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else. I'm usually the first one in and the last to leave. Small things matter when someone is frightened. I'm proud of everyone I got to work with.
