SENIOR CARE: I have cared for older adults who are no longer capable of living alone and have limited family support and no resources to purchase an appropriate living situation. Additionally, I have assisted elderly residents with activities of daily living including meals, personal care, household cleaning as well as addressing the physical, and emotional needs of the residents. It is vital to uphold the value and dignity of the gift of long life bestowed upon senior citizens. Moreover, I also cared for an elderly following knee replacement surgery. CHILD CARE: I have cared for children of close friends, relatives, and siblings aged one month to 10 years. Between January to May 2014, I worked at Eastern Michigan University Children's Institute as a teaching assistant, while guiding and assisting children aged 18 months to 5 years.
