Hello :) My name is Katie and I have been in patient care for 8 years and I cannot imagine doing anything else. Healthcare is more of a passion and calling for me, rather than a job or a chore. A little bit of my background: I have done a lot of home health care, I have worked in an ICU psych unit and a geriatric psych/dementia unit in a hospital setting. I have worked in a cardiac ICU, at a rehab/long term care facility, and I have 4 years experience with quadriplegia and muscular dystrophy care. I usually hold more than one position at a time which has led to a wide variety of experience. Working with quadriplegia has taught me to be very observant and detail oriented. I also have a lot of experience with dementia and my Medication Aide certification. I am a thorough housekeeper, a pretty good cook, and a loving companion. I am a patient and empathetic person that lives to help people. I am excited to hear from you and can provide references upon request :)
