I am enthusiastic and passionate about taking care of older adult. I have tons of experience! I am 38 years old. I graduated UNC Chapel Hill in 2003 with a BA in communications. I worked as an executive assistant for 8 years in Raleigh prior to persuing my career in healthcare. I worked part-time at Springmoor Retirement Community for an elderly couple until they transitioned into intensive around-the-clock care. I also worked for a homecare agency out of Kernersville, NC that eventually closed due to internal management changes. I also spent a year on the telemetry floor as a cardiac technician at Moses Cone Hospital. I am a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNAI) and I am up to date on my healthcare provider CPR, AED and BLS for healthcare workers. I am very positive-thought focused, energetic and easy to get along with. My goal is to enjoy time with my patients/clients while making their quality of life as comfortable as possible by doing anything I can in any area of their lives to assist them. If you are looking for a well-qualified, highly dependable and compassionate caregiver then I can certainly be of service. If you would like to see my complete resume including all experience and qualifications as well as descriptions of responsibilities at prior positions please email me at shpatterson801@gmail.com. Also references can be given upon request from former employers, as well as direct family references from families I have worked for. Thanks for taking the time to review my profile.
