● Care Partner

● I provided care for multiple patients at an assisted living/ memory care unit. The care I was expected to complete included bathing(showering, bed baths, sink baths, and tub baths), toileting(commodes, urinals, and catheters, bed changes), turning, transferring(hoyer lifts, sit to stand lifts), washing laundry, cleaning(housekeeping), taking vitals, problem solving, waiting/ busing tables, managing behaviors(I needed to be able to redirect the patients safety and de-escalate situations before they become problems), participate in activities, and be a companion for the residents. Reid Health Hospital - Richmond, Indiana September 2022

● Nursing Care Assistant

● I worked full time on the 4E Progressive Unit which required working with many coworkers together to provide the best patient care. For my part I was expected to chart vitals such as blood pressures(manual or by monitor), temperatures, O2 saturation, blood sugars, heart rates, and run EKGs for every patient I was assigned three times a shift or more. I was also expected to chart rounds every other hour, chart position changes, and chart the output/input of each patient. I was also to ask each patient if they wanted bed baths or showers depending on their restrictions, this also determined bathroom methods such as (bedside commodes, urinals, external/internal catheters, bed pans, and bathroom assists) There were some cases where an NCA would have to sit with just one patient and chart every 30 mins everything the patient did or didn’t do. Another part of the job was to admit patients into rooms by contacting monitor technicians after I’d prepared the room with supplies and connected them to the monitors to get vitals and weights. I was also directed by the charge nurse to discharge patients by helping disconnect them from the monitor after notifying the technicians, helping them dress, gather belongings, and ordering a method(wheelchair, bed, etc)of transport for them to get home. Swanton Health Care - Swanton, Ohio January 2021

● Caregiver

● I provided care for 10 patients on the assisted living unit alone, at this specific facility only one caregiver would be scheduled on the floor per shift. The care I was expected to complete included showering, cleaning, taking vitals, problem solving, managing behaviors, and being a companion for the residents of the building. At the facility I worked at, I also gained experience working with dementia patients which required delicate communication and problem solving in order to work with residents and de-escalate situations. The Waterford at Levis Commons - Perrysburg, Ohio March 2019-2021

● Care Partner

● I provided care for multiple patients at an assisted living. The care I completed included showering, cleaning, taking vitals, problem solving, managing behaviors, and being a companion for the residents of the building. During the first Covid outbreak families were not allowed into the facility so I would stay for as long as I could with residents without interrupting my duties to make sure they were doing okay mentally, I would also stay for those passing on and make sure they knew they weren’t alone. I have worked with hoyer lifts, stand up lifts, wheelchairs, and have used the walk in bathtubs, and the regular showers. At the facility I worked at, I also had experience working with dementia patients which required l problem solving and delicate communication in order to work with residents without upsetting them.
