Minneapolis,MN

Summary

I am an organized and dependable worker who can handle many tasks at the same time while staying positive. I am always ready to take on extra responsibilities to help my team succeed.

I have experience as a Personal Care Aid, helping clients with their daily needs at home, in hospice, and in recovery centers. I can assist with personal care, health needs, light cleaning, and keeping living spaces safe and tidy. I am good at communicating with patients, writing down important information, and working well with supervisors.

I care deeply about supporting elderly and disabled people with respect and kindness. I can check and report on their health, keep their rooms clean, and give them company. I also know how to take vital signs and follow safety and infection control rules.

I am attentive, caring, and passionate about helping with physical, emotional, and mental needs. I bring strong skills in multitasking, staying organized, and solving problems to provide the best care possible.
