Accomplishments
One of my achievements is that I have completed my PSS (Personal Support Specialist) certification. A Personal Support Specialist is trained to offer direct care to individuals who need assistance with daily living skills, which may include personal hygiene, mobility, meal preparation, etc. PSS workers assist individuals who are elderly, disabled, or recovering from an illness or disease, helping them live independently in their communities with a high quality of life. It shows that I am responsible, caring, and committed to caregiving. I feel like this is a great quality to have beccause this skill set can transfer to any job I pursue.
