Exclusive Live Interview:

 

Pulse by healthjobhub Facebook Live Talk Show, Season 1 Episode #13 Featured Special Guest Annliza Chetty Registered Nurse (RN). Hear Annliza's incredible story on what inspired her to pursue her career as a nurse.

Here's a little more about Annliza Chetty:

Annliza is a registered nurse of almost 20 years experience with specialized critical care training and experience in cardiothoracic ICU Nursing, having worked at leading hospitals in South Africa and the United Kingdom.

She qualified as a registered nurse after completing her 4 year integrated course in general nursing, community, psychiatry and midwifery at the R K Khan Hospital through the then Natal College of Nursing, and obtained her Bachelor of Science Honours Degree In Critical Care in Nursing from the Kings College London University, one of the top 10 UK universities in the world.

As a newly qualified Sister she worked in the ICU at the ST Aidans Mission Hospital In Durban, and then went on to work at Wentworth Hospital where she enjoyed working with patients in the cardiothoracic ward and the ICU caring for patients who had undergone cardiac and thoracic surgery. 

Following in her late mums footsteps of nursing, Annliza pursued her dual passions of nursing and traveling as she looked at options of working in the UK. Within less than 2 years of qualifying, she received her registration with the then United Kingdom Central Council for Nursing, Midwifery and Health Visiting. She eventually lived and worked in the UK for almost 13 years where she found her niche at the Kings College Hospital, South East of London specializing in cardiothoracic nursing in the high care and recovery of patients post heart and lung surgery.

She became a team leader and mentor in this unit.

Living in the UK was her passport to travel to different countries and broadened her sense of adventure and knowledge.

After her UK experience, and a brief spell in Canada she decided to settle in South Africa with her family, returning to work in a specialized ICU for a few years, maintaining her critical care nursing skills.

After having worked a few years in the ICU, she made a decision to transfer to the Theatre Recovery unit.

Some of her  hobbies include blogging about life and motherhood, reading, taking part in 5-10 km challenge runs, she loves the adventures of the outdoors, cooking and baking with her young master chef son, spending quality time with her family, and playing the piano.

She believes that your faith and support of your family can carry you through any situation. She is passionate about positivity and believes that the most powerful words you can tell someone is: 

“I believe in you “.
