I have worked as a direct support professional for people with developmental disabilities. I have some experience with children with Autism. Working with children is not my specialty, but I am willing to work with them- I am professional and a quick learner. I have also worked with older adults with Alzheimer's and dementia. My experience also includes taking care of palliative care and hospice patients. I recently received my limited social work license and have worked in that capacity in various hospital settings. I have a basic medical background- I am CPR certified, have experience with seizure care, feeding tubes, and colostomy bags. At my current job, I act as a nurse's assistant at a low level of care medical facility. I pass medications, conduct symptom assessments, and take vitals. I am very passionate about working with special needs and senior populations. I am good at interacting with people from all walks of life, I really enjoy it. I pride myself on taking care of my clients as I would my own family. I very much care about the well-being of my clients and like getting to know them. I hope you'll consider me to provide care to you or your loved one.
