Job overview
- I interact with my clients in a respectful, professional manner, I pay close attention to their behaviors and chart where they are located every hour, take them to their recovery groups and report to my clinical staff on a regular basis.
- I find my work productive and rewarding.
- I can definitely say this is my first position working in a drug and alcohol treatment center, but I've been a nurse aide since 1994, which I find to be a guide on how to handle people of all disabilities and illnesses including addiction.

Certification
State Tested Nursing Assistant, 11/01/16, I became a STNA in 1994 At Mercy St. John's…. I was pulled from time to time to actually work At Mercy Hospital…. Later I wanted to get my STNA certification back because it was mine, so I went to Essex Nursing Home and went through the process and class all over again, and regained my STNA certification in 2016, since then, I have grown and have become who God set out for me to be. I truly love doing what I do and take much pride in providing care, communication, and respect to and for my residents, patients and families!!
Additional Information
From time to time I did go to shops, such as Stanly Electric, Kia Beach, and a cable company in Cambridge Ohio…. I have worked on molding machines, cleaning machines….I am always looking for new experiences and skills…. I'm not above trying!!!!! I have a lot of experience in cleaning as well, I'm a mother for one, and I had to clean the shops that I've worked at.
