About Diane

As a trained Nursing Assistant with approximately ten years of total experience in providing personal care and a variety of home health duties as well as restorative care, I am seeking a position as a nurse assistant in the home setting. I believe that every individual has a right to a high quality life and that I have the skills and experience to provide high quality care so that the client can maintain dignity and independence. I am well-versed in providing compassionate care, giving respect and promoting independence are of the utmost importance. In addition to having excellent bedside manner, I am equally skilled in communicating with other medical professionals to serve and meet the clients’ needs. I am also experienced in working with other health team members, to effectively track, record and report status, progress, and overall well-being of the clients. I vigorously strive to provide excellent service to the internal and external customers as well as keep accurate and organized records of the status of the client's condition. Lastly, but most importantly, my motivation and belief are biblically based; “Love thy neighbor as you love thyself.” I firmly believe I have the knowledge, experience, and character that you are looking for and I would welcome the chance to speak with someone about a position.
