Camille Kitchen
Summary
I have a strong background in behavioral health. I have worked memory care units as a CNA, dually diagnosed individuals as a DSP and provided peer support in the community and briefly at Torrance State Hospital. I am familiar with behavioral support plans, IEPs and support plans. I have been taking care of my grandchildren for the last 3 years. I have a 6 year old grandson with autism (minimal verbal skills). I can work with any age group.
Highly-motivated employee with desire to take on new challenges. Strong work ethic, adaptability, and exceptional interpersonal skills. Adept at working effectively unsupervised and quickly mastering new skills.
