Summary

I have been a CNA for 30+ years having worked in many healthcare settings from acute to hospice care. I have gotten the opportunity to care for patients with G-tubes, tracheostomies, foley catheters, surgical wounds, etc. I have acquired an RNA certificate and have worked in rehabilitation settings with PTs, OTs, and STs. I have had a successful professional career as a CNA and am hoping to leverage the skills I have garnered over the years into this role. I am an attentive listener and follow instructions. I always follow safe and approved practices within my scope to care for patients while adhering to HIPAA standards to protect protected health information.
