Cheryl has been certified since January 4th, 2004. She has worked in long term care since she became certified with the state of Illinois. Cheryl's experiences range from; elderly adults with dementia/ Alzheimer’s, bariatric patients, to taking care of MI patients.

Along with being a CNA for 20 years, Cheryl also has taken four years of LVVS (Lamoine Valley

Vocational Services) while in high school. The main career focus with her LVVS classes was on

Secretarial/Clerical Skills. Cheryl can productively do the following tasks, jobs

File paperwork, employee files, documents, etc. in any of the filing components mentioned below

A)Alphabetically

B)Numerically

C)Alphanumerically

Along with typing 70wpm, answering/transferring phone calls, taking messages, making phone calls, scheduling appointments, customer service, great team player, good at problem solving, fast paced, quick learner, observant, focused, stays on task, ambitious, go getter attitude, cheerful disposition, not afraid to take on new tasks because learning something new can tell if it will be something she likes or dislikes, she is always willing to help achieve the goals of her job setting.

Cheryl has an up beat energetic personality, she loves to make people smile, laugh, anything to brighten their day. She takes criticism as a learning tool, because if she isn't told how is she to know what the problem is and how she can fix it, correctly do the task, when knowing she can do the task but in a slightly better way by ideas given from others around her, she will take a little of each idea and combined them all into one so that it is feasible to make it all work and help each co-worker estressllllllfeel pleased they helped make someone's task easier and less stressful.

My motto for myself is as follows

"Why spend your day frowning upon the gloominess, when there is always a brighter side of things?! There is more to smile about than there is to frown upon, so smile away as it could brighten someone's day!"
