About Courtney

Hello, I'm Courtney!! I have significant knowledge in the proper implementation of treatment plans and hospital procedures. I learned these throughout my clinical experience in Nuclear Medicine. I spent 3/4 days out of the week in the hospital, and I sincerely enjoyed it. I strive to be around my patients. I am a patient-focused individual, skilled in guiding individuals through potentially stressful situations/tests, I turned to Carelinx, knowing I can potentially help someone, through caregiving. I did this once before and that is where I originally discovered I wanted to work in the hospital (go to school for Nuclear Medicine), and help people. My exceptional communication and interpersonal skills enable me with the ability to quickly establish positive rapport with patients. I have a proven track record of success throughout my career due to my meticulous attention to detail and strong work ethic. I pride myself in always exceeding objectives to ensure the comprehensive comfort and education of the patient. I am now positioned to bring my combination of self-motivation, strong work ethic, and education to a challenging new position within the caregiving community. In addition to my professional attributes, I can offer you the following personal qualifications: * A patient-centered philosophy rooted in the nursing process with attention to assessment, planning and implementation of the highest quality patient care and safety. * A positive, compassionate, eager to learn individual, effective at communicating with my patients, and accepting feedback/direction. * Exceptional motivation and the capacity to work productively. Realizing that this summary cannot fully communicate the benefits I can provide your loved ones, I would appreciate the opportunity to visit with you, personally. Thank you

I became a caregiver because my grandmother needed me to help her stay independent and at home. I love being a caregiver and I am always meeting new and interesting people who all have different walks of life . I am most proud of my ability to relate to everyone. I have invested 20 + years and countless hours into my career training and it is really rewarding. I am a CNA and I am excited about the opportunity to care for people who need my help. I am CPR certified and I have been trained to work with a variety of different people. I am reliable and consistent. I have a kind and compassionate attitude. I really enjoy doing my life's work.
