Amber Mead
@ambermead
Compassionate caregiver and customer service professional with 5+ years’ experience delivering patient-centered support.
What I'm looking for
I’m a reliable, compassionate caregiving professional and customer service representative with 5+ years of experience across healthcare, food service, and retail. I’m known for de-escalation, fast-paced problem solving, and keeping people safe while maintaining a calm, supportive presence.
In home and residential caregiving, I provide daily support with bathing, dressing, grooming, medication reminders, and meal preparation, while also assisting with transportation to medical appointments and communicating effectively with providers. I monitor changes in behavior, stability, mood, and health, and document accordingly to support early intervention and continuity of care.
I’ve also brought strong customer service skills to healthcare and retail settings—handling 50+ calls per shift, resolving insurance and billing questions while adhering to HIPAA standards, and processing 100+ transactions accurately as a cashier. When conflict arises, I focus on resolution and coaching, using clear communication and empathy to de-escalate and move forward.
Leadership is another strength: I supervised a team of 5–8 people per shift, managed inventory and weekly food orders, balanced tills nightly, and trained newest employees. I’m currently pursuing a B.S in Industrial Organizational Psychology to expand into HR roles, and I’m excited to bring my people-first mindset, documentation discipline, and hands-on care experience to a team that values continuous improvement.
