Additional Information

I've been with Bethphage/Mosaic for 20 years altogether working as a caregiver/Medication Aide. I worked at the ICF on Faidley Ave. from the beginning until January of 2020. I was transferred to the ICF on Hope Street. During the time being at Faidley, I also did some paperwork for my manager. Through these years I've only been late maybe 5-6 times. I feel as though it's time to change jobs, that's why I am applying. I would like to start a new chapter in my life.
