I am a qualified Certified Nurse Assistant currently working as a Palomar Home Health Care Assistant with terminally ill elderly patients and also at the Brain Trauma Learning Center in Escondido. I changed careers from restaurant management to health care 4 years ago after taking care of my elderly father during his cancer treatment. In 2006 my wife returned from a middle east deployment with the Air Force and underwent major surgery at Balboa Naval Medical Center. I helped her through her physical therapy and convalescence and began to take classes at Mesa College in 2008 to be a Physical Therapy Assistant. My wife returned from another overseas tour in 2010 needing physical therapy and I was not able to finish the program. Mesa College lost its Physical Therapy Assistant accreditation for the following year so I completed the Certified Nurse Assistant program at Miracosta College instead. My resume and transcripts detail my college classes related to health care, physical therapy and medical treatment procedures. After working for 8 months at St Paul’s and an additional 20 months directly with terminal home care patients at Palomar, and at the Brain Trauma Learning center, I have learned to treat each patient as an individual, listening to and meeting their needs and choices as much as possible. I look forward to a new position as a Nurse Assistant where I can directly apply my skills. I appreciate your taking the time to review my credentials and experience. Again, th
