I believe that I am an excellent care taker do to the fact that I have had 10 years of experience in this field, of which there is no substitute. During this time I have encountered a host of challenges that I feel I have handled brilliantly. I feel that I am a seasoned, highly qualified candidate for this position. What I am particularly proud of is that I frequently took on the challenging task of working intently with the available Alternative to Work Programs that my house residents attended daily. Working conjointly with managers and employees of these establishments I was often needed to help with i designing highly individualized work activities for the clients I was responsible for. The design parameters of these individualized work programs had to meet the wrap-around needs of the client, often having to problem solve situations that proved to be highly complicated. This was often a challenge, for if the resident became un-interested in his/her work, or otherwise, disengaged, then what ensued was a set of behaviors that tended to be counter-productive to the individual and to the group environment as a whole. If the tendencies/behaviors were not subsequently dealt with successfully, in a timely fashion, then the resident would be sent home prematurely thus, missing out on his/her potential income of a “full” day's work.
