I began working for private in home care after taking care of my terminally ill husband and during this time I went back to college majoring in Health Care Administration/medical records graduating with an Associates of Science degree. After graduating I decided I preferred doing hands on care and working directly with clients for 3 ½ years in which I was a HHA/PCA. During this time I began training for my C.N.A. through the American Red Cross and obtained my license. I have worked for several agencies where I have had the opportunity to work in nursing homes/ rehabilitation centers, assisted living/retirement homes and private care. . During this time I have worked at many different facilities where I have the opportunity to work with many patients with various problems. I am confident with my passion and skills and I would be a good candidate taking care of those that are in need of CNA/PCA/HHA care utilizing my skills: Vital signs Patient charting Patient care/safety ADL’s ~ activities of daily living Medication reminding Patient care rights/HIPPA Housekeeping Cooking according to nutrient guideline Medical transporting
