Summary
I am a long time CNA with almost a decade of experience in the field. I specialize in long term and memory care but am extremely flexible and adaptable, having also worked on and off in transitional care. I've also more recently worked a year and a half as an ER technician at Saint Anne's hospital and have my phlebotomy and BLS certification. I am a very hard worker and work well with team mates as well as individually depending on what the situation may call for. I can follow sound leadership as well as having experience in leadership roles and do very well with training and molding new minds. I promote compassion in our field and understanding with great bed side manner with patients as well as with their visiting families so they feel comfortable knowing their loved one is in capable hands.
