I have 5 years of experience. I can help with Bathing/Grooming/Hygiene and Behavior - Positive Behavioral Support. I worked as a direct support professional for 9 months, I learned some great skills, and met the most amazing people. After that, I began caring for an elderly women, which I continued up until her passing at 99 years old. I then focused on caring for people with IDD, I've worked with the ARC, and am now with the state at Sunmount. I'm looking for a job closer to home. Through the years I've also gained experience in caring for children as well. I believe I have the skills to adapt to most environments. No matter the age group, disability, or health condition- I will always make sure everyone around me is well taken care of and happy!
