I would like to be a part of your team.  I know I can be an asset to the team and the team to me.   I am working as a current paramedic, which I love.  Although the stress of the job and environment is not conducive to my well being and my goals.  I will be going back to online school to attain my Bachelor's degree in Psychology which I feel will be beneficial to my long term goals as a P.A.   I will need the time and a great working environment to lead me into that direction. Being an employee with Adventist Health we benefit the both of use.
