Duties include providing home health services for children of all

ages and varying levels of need from G-button care to trach and

ventilator needs and IV management

2011 to present @ Pediatric Home Health Care

Duties are identical to those @ Epic. Staffing varies with the

needs of the offices, so I work between both offices

7-2007 thru 12-2010 @ Residential Care of Rockwall

This was my start-up company at which I was responsible for;

all areas of staffing including training. Also coordination of ancillary

services such as visiting physicians, home health agencies, hospice care,

nurse practitioner, dentist, lab and xray services. The primary goal

was to create a loving home that our residents would feel safe and

cared for by staff who were well trained. It was a daily effort.

2-2005 thru 7-2007 Pro Staff, Brookriver Dr., Dallas, Tx 75234

My responsibilities at this job were to help staffing needs at

Charleton Methodist Hospital. During this time I was contracted

by the unit coordinator of the tele-med/surg floor to work on

her floor. My duties included; adult assessments, admin of po cardiac

meds on a prn basis according to pt changes, advanced wound

care, unstable insulin dependant pts, IV/blood product administration

under an RN’s supervision and the post-op care of cardiac surgical

patients. Here the patient acuity was high and staffing slim at times.

During this time is when I improved my time management and

critical thinking skills.

I look forward to interviewing with you at your convenience. I hope my

skills will be a benefit for your company.
