Taylor Ruffo
@taylorruffo
Certified Nursing Assistant and Medical Assistant delivering compassionate, detail-focused patient care.
What I'm looking for
I bring 10+ years of CNA/GNA experience providing hands-on support for the elderly, dementia patients, and hospice/terminally ill individuals. I’m trusted for assisting with activities of daily living while maintaining dignity, safety, and comfort.
Across nursing home, assisted living, and home environments, I handle vital signs, medication delivery/support, documentation of care, and basic wound care. I also support routines like feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, walking, and ROM exercises, while assisting with lifting when necessary.
In my Medical Assistant role, I expanded into patient intake and clinical support—taking medical histories, measuring vital signs, preparing treatment rooms, collecting/preparing lab specimens, and administering injections/medications as directed. I also supported scheduling, patient records, and billing/insurance inquiries.
I’m motivated by compassionate teamwork and consistent, organized care. I aim to continue working in healthcare where clear communication, infection control, and reliable patient support matter every day.
