Summary

Going to college, and then studying nursing I gained experience and knowledge about how to organize things to aid people while working as a master of provisioning. As a result of performing these activities, which I know are helping someone in need, I also improved my self-esteem. At the nursing home, I assisted the elderly with their needs while simultaneously gaining strength and going through numerous vulnerable experiences.

Professional with experience in healthcare, prepared for this role. Strong ability to adapt to changing needs and collaborate effectively with teams. Skilled in patient care, medical terminology, and basic clinical procedures. Reliable and results-driven, with focus on achieving positive health outcomes and maintaining high standards in all tasks.
