Add to FavoritesAbout Margaret
I'm currently employed at Wakemed Hospital as Patient Care Observer. My job is mainly to sit with patients who are on fall risk, to ensure their safety, also sit with mentally ill patients who are on suicide watch, to ensure they are safe. I enjoy my job as a caregiver, especially when assisting in therapeutic interaction with patients, just to know that there is someone who is there to care for them. I care for the elderly as well with alzheimer's disease. My personal achievement is to have taken care of both my parents during their ailment before they passed on. This makes me proud knowing that I was there for them.
