Summary

I am committed to serving humanity with focus and determination. With over two and half years of experience in healthcare, I have developed a strong reputation for maintaining therapeutic relationships with those I care for. I possess the knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary to ensure their comfort during and after care. My dedication to enhancing clients’ well-being is evident through effective communication, empathetic support, and proficiency in daily living activities. I excel in maintaining detailed documentation and collaborating with other healthcare professionals to provide the highest standard of care. I am seeking an opportunity to contribute my expertise to a dynamic healthcare team and positively impact the lives of those I serve by consistently applying the principles of DIPPS in my daily practice in both homecare and long-term care settings.
