Summary
At UF Health, a hard-working, detail-oriented, compassionate, and ambitious Certified Nursing Assistant adept in electronic charting and providing exceptional bedside manner, I enhanced patient care through meticulous condition monitoring and effective care plan implementation. Leveraging skills in patient assessments and direct patient care, I significantly contributed to improving patient satisfaction and health outcomes. I bathe, groom, and feed elderly and disabled patients and provide emotional support to patients and families. I love working as a CNA, but ready to transition into a Physician Assistant where I can grow my skills and help others.

Now I am focused on continuing my CNA hours and would love to be accepted into the Physician Assistant Program at Gannon University.
