Summary

I have years of experience working with all kinds of people. Im a compassionate caregiver with skills in all kinds of care from elderly to youth care, hospice and terminal and contagious illnesses of all sorts. As well as. dementia, and mental health. Having multiple clients at a time, I also became very experienced with time management. Proven ability to enhance client wellbeing through emotional support and efficient care coordination. Recognized for optimizing caregiver productivity and ensuring compliance with industry standards, fostering a safe and nurturing environment for clients.

Among the 15 years of working as a caregiver

In between the time I was working as a caregiver, i decided to get a second job.

Because i was looking to brighten my horizons. I'm always looking forward to improving my skills to better help people in all situations.

I was offered a job from shoalwater bay tribe, as a caregiver coordinator. With that job I completed my CNA, as well as a certificate for you nurse delegation.

The program I worked for was canceled, so they moved me in to a kitchen as a cook. Although I do enjoy cooking.Anne did a darn good job at it.

I am compassionate for people and was drawn back into caregiving with new challenges and people I dearly cared for.

And with that, I most recent recently advanced my caregiving knowledge with the advanced caregiving class.

In which was very useful to give my clients the best care that I can give them.
