What I'm looking for

I seek a patient-centered role where I can provide hands-on care, administer medications, collaborate with clinical teams, and support clients' independence and dignity.

I am a compassionate and dedicated healthcare professional with over eight years of experience across residential, hospital, and home health environments. I specialize in direct support, certified nursing assistance, medication administration, and delivering patient-centered care with empathy and reliability.

I have provided comprehensive care in group homes, hospitals, and private residences, coordinating with families and healthcare providers to optimize outcomes. I am certified as a CNA, hold Medication Administration Certification (MAC), and maintain CPR certification, with hands-on experience recording vitals, administering medications, and documenting care.

I bring strong communication, teamwork, and customer-service skills honed through clinical roles and remote call-center work. I am committed to improving quality of life for patients, maintaining regulatory-compliant environments, and supporting dignity and respect for diverse populations.
