Experienced Caregiver
I have been in healthcare as a caregiver/CNA since 2010 with experience in home care, LTC, SNF, acute care, and rehab settings. I am currently employed with Nanticoke Memorial Hospital as a Clinical Support Tech (Nursing Assistant) and with Caring Heart Home Care Agency as a Caregiver. My roles at both employers entails generally the same responsibilities that include assisting with ADLs (bathing, dressing, grooming, feeding, toileting, and transferring needs). As for my roles in the hospital setting, my responsibilities include further training in obtaining vital signs, orthostatic blood pressures, blood sugars, EKGs, foley catheter care, and report any changes or concerns to nurse. In home care setting, I have additional responsibilities in IADLs (light housekeeping, communications, medication reminders, shopping/meal prep/planning, and transportation). I am driven in this field because I inspire to care for people as if they were my own family and encourage independent living.
