My experience dates back for years with a proven track record of the most
compassionate patient care and positive impact to health. My various skills in the medical field paired with my attentiveness to individuals and their needs, makes me the best choice amongst my peers in care and hospitality. As time goes on, I have committed myself to being part of making a better world for us all to live in, and providing care for those who need it the most. WORK EXPERIENCE
As a Nursing Assistant, I faced various situations that called for quick- thinking and critical decision making. I was able to blossom in the field thanks to the knowledge gained on-field through my peers, patients, and surroundings. My daily duties and responsibilities as a CNA included:
• Assisting patients in performance of routine recovery and mobility exercises, providing support when getting in and out of bed as well as walking and stretching.
• Performing routine wound care and dressing changes on schedule.
• Remaining calm during high-stress, critical situations, demonstrating sustained focus and problem-solving in real-time.
• Helping patients eat and drink when necessary for safe consumption of food consistent with recovery guidelines.
• Documenting nursing services provided and uploaded to comprehensive tracking systems for health records.
• Maintaining an excellent attendance record, consistently arriving to work on time.
• Carrying out day-day-day duties accurately and efficiently with high attention to detail.
