While attending nursing school, I have had much experience with different types of special needs patients of different ages. I can assist with hygiene needs, activities of daily living, attending doctors appointments, care of the sick, disabled, mobility problems, special needs or medical conditions. I am willing to learn about new disabilities or illness that I may have learned about but not have experience with. I am dedicated to what I do and have always had a passion for caring for others. I am qualified for medication administration, injections including insulin. I am CPR and First Aid certified.
