United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Certified Medication Technician with extensive experience in providing medication management and community support services. Currently, I work at Apple Ridge Care Center, where I dispense medications and assist residents with their daily living activities. My commitment to patient care is complemented by my training in critical intervention and de-escalation techniques, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for all residents.
Previously, I served as a Housing Liaison and Community Support Specialist at Compass Health Network, where I successfully assisted unhoused individuals in finding stable housing and accessing essential resources. My role involved collaborating with various agencies to secure government assistance and providing ongoing support to individuals facing mental health and substance use challenges. I take pride in my ability to build trusting relationships and empower clients to achieve their goals.
With a strong foundation in case management and a passion for helping others, I am eager to continue making a positive impact in the community. My experience in mental health support and my certifications in medication management equip me to contribute effectively in any healthcare setting.
