About Giwania

In addition to working as an LVN at Sutter Center for Psychiatry I have also worked as an LVN for Maxim Home HealthCare on several cases, at the University Retirement Center in Davis California and at Mule Creek State Prison. I am a compassionate person who listens well. I have a great love and respect for people. I am a person who attends to details and consistently puts forth her best effort. As the oldest of five children whose parents were often unwell, I find that I have always been a caregiver. The personal achievement that I am most proud of is having conducted Bible Studies at Juvenile Hal for over 10 years. It was most rewarding.

Experience & Education

LVN

Oct 1994 - Present
Sutter Center For Psychiatry
I've worked for this company since 1994. I began as a Mental Health Worker, which is the equivalent of a Psychiatric Nurse Assistant. I was later promoted to position of Unit Secretary where I was responsible for clerical operations on the unit. I attended the LVN program at Sacramento City College and continued to work as LVN at SCP. As LVN I worked under supervision of the Charge Nurse. My primary responsibilities were medication passes, wound care, breathing treatments and helping to maintain a safe and therapeutic milieu. SCP has recently converted to a Primary Care Nursing Model and I have been reassigned to work at the COVID screening table.
