I've worked with people with intellectual disabilities, in particular those with Autism spectrum disorders. My goal in my work is to help the people I support become as independent as possible. I have assisted with home maintenance, personal care, and community integration, among other things. I enjoy building relationships with the people I support! I passed my nurse aid course recently and will be testing soon. I currently have certifications in CPR, first aid, dependent child and dependent adult abuse, diabetic and insulin injection training, CPI Non-violent crisis intervention, and I have experience passing all kinds of medications. I've also worked with people with more severe behaviors. I'm working on learning ASL, but have already worked with people who are non verbal and use assertive devices for communication. I am looking to further my knowledge in this field! I'm flexible with hours, and I am able to adjust to the needs of a person served and their family easily.
