Summary
I am a dedicated, organized, honest and sympathetic team player. For the past 21 years I have had the joy and privilege to work in a small community of primarily geriatric patients. I have had the pleasure of treating this clientele numerous times as well as their friends and family members. I have a total of 29 years experience as a PTA and 2 years as an aide working in a SNF while I completed my schooling. With a total of 15 years experience working in the Acute Care Hospital and Transitional Care floor. The past 11 years I have primarily worked in the Out Patient Clinic. I hope to get some experience in the Home Health Setting.
