Work Experience
Patient Care Attendant
Yuma Regional Medical Center - Yuma, AZ
November 2009 to September 2012
I worked as a companion to seniors and patients in detox. I also sat with
patients in comfort care. When not busy with a patient, I assisted the
nurse's aides and nurses with drawing blood or bathing a patient. I
assisted with feeding and filling water pitchers. I enjoyed assisting the
patients and medical staff.
I pride myself in being the best I can be at whatever task I take on. I
love caring for people, life is harder for some and people need caring
people around in all situations. As of September 19, 2012 I was laid off
from my position.
Preschool Teacher for Two Year Olds/November 16, 1998-October 14, 2008
United Methodist Children and Youth Center/Little Dove Daycare -
Indianapolis, IN
November 1998 to October 14, 2012
I was the lead teacher in the care of 12-15 toddlers, with the help of my
teacher's aide and foster grandparent. We had a few special needs little
ones and many energetic two's. Potty training was our biggest goal. We
helped with manners during meals. How to learn through play. How to play
with others well. We explored life away from parents and how to control
their tempers. We looked into nature's life around the playground. Helping
children blossom where they are planted was our motto at the youth center.
