CERTIFIED NURSING ASSISTANT
Summary

Driven and compassionate healthcare professional with at least 4 years hands-on experience in fast-paced residential and rehabilitation environments. Accountable and responsible with a strong focus on patient wellness. Energetic and dedicated to providing top-quality, patient-centered care. Proven to excel at exceptional patient care, always have a presentable look on my face. Known to go above and beyond to make sure the needs of my patients are being properly met. Always look at it as if I was caring for one of my own family members or friends, the care I would expect them to get from others is the care I'm always making sure to give to others. Going home at the end of the day knowing you've made a difference in someone else's life, in nothing but positive ways, is the greatest reward yet.

Skills

All about giving the best one on one patient care.

Making sure their rights and dignity are being kept.

I truly love working within a nursing home facility and/ or with the elderly in general.

Very outgoing and bubbly.

Always think in a perspective if it were my family member being taken care of.
