    Jan 2013 - Oct 2015
    Oregon DHS CIIS
    I cared for a teenager that had a trach and g-tube. She needed around the clock care. I did all personal care: bathing, dressing, oral care, range of motion, use of AFOs. I did the supply and medication orders. I administered medications and charted everything I did on a paper mar and computer mar.

    vent dependent trachea patients Wound care Emergency trained Personal care G-Tube Diabetes Transfers Shower/bathing I worked in a Adult Foster Home with 4 quadriplegic residents and 1 stroke resident. All 5 require trachea care as well as full dependent care. I pass all medications to residents. Each resident requires their own personal care plan. I prepare meals and feed residents that are unable to feed themselves while three residents are tube feeders. I take complete care of all their G-Tube care including medications. I am a lead caregiver delegated by the owner and RN of the facility. I communicate report by phone to the RN of the facility which requires excellent written and verbal communications skills. The RN allows me as a lead caregiver to be responsible for the care of her residents as she is not here daily. I have worked for this facility for a little over one year and have a great passion for working with people and their healthcare.

    Hi I'm Nikiea and I provide quality care for people of all walks of life. I became a caregiver looking for experience to enter into the hospital field. Once I got here is just absolutely loved taking care of people it just comes natural to me. I have been in this film for just about 6 years now and I was awarded DSP of the year 2017 for the state of Oregon. Helping people in their daily lives and getting them out and about to explore the community really moves me. I love helping people become their best selves.
