What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my skills in community rehabilitation and disability studies, focusing on operational excellence and impactful social work.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in community-based rehabilitation and disability studies. My experience includes leading training and sensitization projects that empower individuals and enhance their skill sets. I have successfully collaborated with municipal staff to implement community skill-building initiatives, showcasing my strong management and leadership abilities.

During my tenure at Asokore Mampong Municipal Assembly, I trained women in the community on liquid soap making, which significantly improved their economic opportunities. I also emphasized the importance of skill acquisition, leading to increased participation in various skill development programs. My internship at Manhyia District Hospital allowed me to assist clients in their rehabilitation journey, ensuring their safety and comfort while performing exercises and receiving massages.
