Shahidah M.

I have seven years of experience in the field of nursing as a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) and a Certified Medication Technician (CMT). I have demonstrated the ability to meet and exceed goals, and I have a proven history of valuable skills. I also have extensive ability to resolve key issues, communicate pivotal concepts, and develop innovative ideas. I always love helping other people and I enjoy impacting clients' lives in a positive way. I appreciate the opportunity to get to know my clients and their families, and to become an integral part of their lives while providing excellent care and support. I am proud of going back to college to further my studies in nursing. I have the ability to take initiative and prioritize my workload, and am very punctual, hardworking, dedicated, kind, respectful, honest and extremely attentive.

I am compassionate and caring. I have learned to listen and read eye and body movement from clients. I took care of one client that didn't have any family and the reward of keeping her company and making her comfortable made me happy as well as the client. The smiles on their faces and there family faces of relief is enough for me. The case that i'm proud of is that one client had surgery on both her knees and couldn't walk her dog that was sick as well with digestive problems. He had to be walked several times a day and she said he waits for me at the door every morning. He normally always stays by her side. She said he has never done that before and that he must really like and sense the care and love in me. That made my mornings seeing him sitting by the front door.
