My name is Ocean. I am a committed and passionate individual with extensive experience in healthcare. My profound interest in serving and supporting others is fueled by my family's background in the care field. I currently hold a full-time job as a Case Manager for a non-profit company that serves children and adults living with disabilities, addiction, and homelessness. I am seeking an additional full-time or part-time job within the care field to expand my skills and gain further experience. I have a particular interest in home healthcare, where I can provide holistic and person-centered care. My key skills include heavy patient lifting and transfer, bedpan and incontinence assistance, bathing, dressing and grooming assistance, toileting, grocery shopping, meal planning and preparation, and injections/medications administration. Among the variety of patient diagnoses I have dealt with are FASD, ASD, TBI, cerebral palsy, visual and hearing impairment, malnutrition, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, dementia, cancer, and diabetes. Known as a valuable and steadfast employee, I adapt well and excel in high-paced environments. I firmly believe in building relationships of support and companionship with my clients to enhance their quality of life. I offer extensive availability, including evening and night shifts on weekdays, and nights on Sundays. With a driver's license and a personally-owned vehicle, I can travel and possibly utilize my vehicle during work. Starting my new venture on November 15, 2023, I aim to make a lasting impact in the field of healthcare. Leveraging my deep passion for helping others, I am excited about new opportunities to continue to serve and support others with unwavering commitment to compassionate care.
