Paulette Matosian
I believe I am a great candidate for this career because I have gained valuable work experience and education during the Covid-19 Pandemic that I can use in my work today.
During the pandemic I have worked as a Dental Assistant, assisting 3 other dentists and volunteers at the Mouth Minders Dental Clinic here at the Salvation Army in Cranbrook.
Where we treat low-income patients, who are in need of emergency or specific related dental treatments. For example, taking radiographs, performing extractions, fitting dentures, checkups, etc.
My responsibilities also included that I perform receptionist and clerical duties such as writing and filling charts, booking appointments, answering calls and emails between staff, working professionals and patients etc.
