About David

To Whom It May Concern, I am a current resident of Port Charlotte, Florida. I moved here from Niagara Falls New York and have worked in the health care and senior care industry for over ten years. My experience working in this field is helping individuals with health care and disabilities to promote independence, personal choice and growth, also encouraging independence, role modeling, problem solving, and decision making, and offering support for self-identified and developed goals, reinforcing self-esteem and achievement. I have been a licensed Certified Nurse Assistant for over 5 years in the State of Florida. I have been extensively trained in many aspects of the industry as well as certified in CPR and medication administration. In my past jobs I have been recognized as one of the top employee’s in my field. On a personal note, what really got me into this profession was that my son is effected with having ADHD and Bipolar disorder and I have, as a single parent, worked with him for many years and he is doing extremely well. I am very devoted to my profession and work well with others. I am also fluent in Spanish and English. I am a highly experienced individual that has compassion for my work, so at this time I would like to submit my resume for your review and meet with you for future employment possibilities. Cordially, David Serrano
