Andry Ruiz
@andryruiz
I provide compassionate patient care, daily living support, and community-focused services across healthcare settings.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I've supported elderly patients and individuals with special needs for over eight years, providing compassionate daily care, guidance, and resources.
At Benchmark Senior Living, I provide basic care, assist with activities of daily living, take vital signs, prepare rooms, clean bedding, and help patients walk. Previously at Comfort Keepers and Parent Care Home Care, I supported clients with hygiene, medication reminders, meals, appointments, and safe home environments.
My healthcare experience also includes preparing patients for dental visits, taking X-rays, and sterilizing equipment at Mount Vernon Neighborhood Health Center. I bring patient monitoring, assessments, case management, service coordination, medical terminology, and vital-sign knowledge to my work.
I'm bilingual in English and Spanish and enjoy building strong community connections while delivering quality care to diverse populations.
