Determined to preserve the dignity of each resident, you provide the individualized physical, mental, and dietary support that they need.
When time allows, you also perform light housekeeping that does not interfere with our residents' care or rest. You are conscientious about communicating residents' health status to the other medical personnel and keeping up-to-date and accurate documentation. You go home each day tired but feeling good about the positive impact you have made in the lives of vulnerable people in your community.
