SKILLS
I have been a Physical Therapist Assistant in the State of Nebraska since 2008. My skills include being an excellent team player and communicator as well as a remarkable self-starter. I have a wealth of knowledge from continuing education courses I have taken over the years and I have the exemplary personality to be able to successfully form a wonderful rapport with patients of all ages. I have experience working and/or interning in a variety of settings including ortho/outpatient, rehab facilities, acute care, pediatrics, aquatics, hospital settings, assisted living facilities, home health and LTC facilities although my primary focus in my years of work experience has been geriatrics/LTC facilities.
