About Junior

I am currently working part time at LIJ Medical Center. Which is part of the Northwell system formerly Northshore LIJ, as a Patient Care Assistant. I have provided excellent care to my assigned patients by going above and beyond their expectations. I become the recipient of the excellence award during nursing week. I also have been awarded the patient focus by our nursing director for touching so many lives. During my 7 years of experience in the health field, I have been left with the strong need to bring relief to those I see suffering, as a result I knew I would need to further my education in nursing and that this would further develop my skills, provide a framework for an evidence based practice, and allow me to be the best, when caring for patients. Right now I am in my junior year (3rd year) of nursing at NYiT (New York Institute of Technology). I have the good fortune to meet many individuals who took their time to write heart felt letters to my employer about their experiences with me. From time to time I read those letters to remind me what we are capable of doing for each other within the direst of circumstances.

I'm a great caregiver because I'm a very passionate person, I love to help people and making them feel comfortable knowing that there's someone that's care for them. The most important part of being a caregiver to me is the patients comfort and always seeing a smile on my patients face and knowing that I put that smile there. I became a caregiver because it's my natural instincts to care for people I just love doing it, I call it my weakness. One of my personal achievement I'm most proud of was getting into nursing school, it's a step closer to me getting to care more and taking care of people.

I became a caregiver because I care about the well-being of the elderly. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel good inside. I am dependable, responsible, and honored to take care of the patients I meet and have a positive impact on their lives. I have up-to-date CNA and BLS certifications. I also have 6 years' experience working with the elderly, assisting them with eating, bathing, dressing, toileting etc. I get a sense of satisfaction from helping patients feel comfortable and loved.
