Summary

With a proven track record at Kare Technologies/Shiftkey and various nursing facilities, I excel in patient care and direct daily support to residents, demonstrating compassion and empathy. Leveraging time management and patient hygiene assistance, I've significantly enhanced patient satisfaction. My ability to adapt and collaborate effectively within diverse teams underscores my commitment to healthcare excellence. I'm also quick to learn, as working with agencies does not leave a lot of room to get fully acquainted with the patients/residents; you have to jump right in and provide the best care possible.
