Compassionate CNA with extensive home health care experience.

What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to provide compassionate care while continuing to grow in the healthcare field.

I am a dedicated Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) with over three years of experience in home health care. My journey began with a passion for helping others, leading me to pursue a career in this rewarding field. Currently, I work at Carle Health in Peoria, where I provide essential care to patients, including taking vitals, assisting with personal hygiene, and ensuring their comfort and safety.

Before becoming a CNA, I gained valuable experience in various roles, including housekeeping and customer service. My time at Holiday Inn and McDonald's taught me the importance of attention to detail and customer satisfaction. Additionally, my experience in technical support and as a home care aide has equipped me with strong communication skills and the ability to handle diverse situations with empathy and professionalism.
