What I'm looking for

I am looking for a part-time healthcare role that allows me to apply my skills while continuing to grow in the nursing field.

I am a dedicated healthcare professional currently enrolled in the Practical Nursing Program at Lively Technical College. My journey in healthcare began with a foundational education in health practices, where I gained essential skills in patient care, medical terminology, and ethics. I have hands-on experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant and Medication Technician, providing compassionate care and support to elderly residents. My commitment to delivering high-quality, patient-centered care drives me to continually advance my clinical knowledge.

Throughout my career, I have developed strong communication skills and a keen attention to detail, which have been instrumental in my roles. At Broad View Assisted Living, I fostered a positive environment for residents while assisting with daily living activities and administering medications. More recently, at Sodalis Senior Living, I collaborated with healthcare professionals to monitor residents' health and implement care plans, ensuring their safety and well-being. I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of my patients and am eager to continue my growth in the nursing field.
