Hospice Social Worker Resume Example

I am a well qualified, high performing, multi-task-oriented, proactive and personable Social Worker with broad expertise ranging from the Child Welfare to the Health Care Fields. I have also completed several School Counseling courses; as well as my Graduate Studies Internship at a high school; with the goal of obtaining my PPS credential. In addition, I have participated in the development and implementation of a Resource Booklet that educates caregivers on the needs of African-American Children in the Foster Care/Adoption System. My strong point is advocacy and I have been chosen by co-workers and colleagues to speak at National Conferences and Board of Supervisor meetings. I am considered to be a leader amongst my colleagues and a natural spokesperson for disenfranchised populations.

I was a co-author of "African-American Hair and Skin Care-A Guide for Caregivers" in 2002, during my employment at Monterey County Child Protective Services. The resource booklet was part of a pilot project and training series at Monterey County Social Services, that was provided to Foster Parents, with the goal of providing education about the diverse needs of African-American Children. In addition, the booklet outlined the direct correlation between self esteem and hair/skin care of the African- American youth.
