As a ex psychiatric nurse assistant, I am very familiar with helping both male and female patients, and attending to their needs such as companionship, food help, supervision along with constant care. I am quite attracted mainly to anything mental health related, but this also falls under that area and so I am more than comfortable working with someone who needs me. I enjoy most helping people and making sure that they are okay first, and that their needs are met. A personal achievement I am quite proud of, would be getting through the intense training procedures that the mental hospital provided, and it's because of that that I feel very well rounded and accomplished within this profession.
