Elijah Long-simon
@elijahlong-simon
Behavioral Technician focused on crisis de-escalation, behavioral data support, and client-centered care.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Behavioral Technician dedicated to supporting individualized care through behavioral data collection, documentation, and crisis de-escalation. In academic and clinical settings, I collected and analyzed behavioral data, documented client progress and vital signs, and applied crisis intervention techniques to help maintain client safety and stability.
I also bring hands-on healthcare and operations experience—from monitoring medication counts with 100% compliance to assisting clients with daily living and compassionate, patient-centered care. With a Life Insurance License (Active) and experience leading teams and writing incident reports, I’m ready to step into roles where trust, safety, and clear communication drive better outcomes.
