Work History

Hospital Linen Sorter

Paris Companies/NOVO Health Services
09.2022 - 10.2022

Here I worked under pressure to have hospital linen clean in a timely manner. My tasks mainly consisted of successfully sorting soiled hospital linen for washing and cleaning up the station (sweeping the floor, picking up any trash, changing trash bags). In this position I was able to cultivate both my independent and team skills. Independently I was in charge of 2-3 different types of linen to sort in their corresponding bins. Doing this correctly reflected on my ability to work as a team since this allowed for the rest of my colleagues to be able to sort through their assigned linen easily.
