What I'm looking for

I seek a stable patient-care role where I can apply CNA skills, clear communication, and dependable hands-on support in a team-focused healthcare setting.

I am a Certified Nurse Assistant with extensive hands-on experience assisting patients with activities of daily living, taking vitals, feeding, and supporting nursing staff across multiple long-term and acute care settings. I bring dependable work habits, attention to procedure, and a strong safety focus informed by BLS, CPR, and ACLS training.

Over more than a decade of healthcare and related operational roles, I have supported patient care in hospitals, rehab centers, and veterans' services while also performing inventory, order-picking, and assembly work in distribution environments. I am comfortable with clinical documentation, basic computer systems, aseptic technique, and routine patient assessments.

I am a hard-working, fast learner who prioritizes quality assurance, patient safety, and clear communication. I seek to contribute reliable direct-care skills, clinical knowledge, and operational flexibility to a team focused on excellent patient outcomes.
