My name is Ngozi Onyekuru, I am CNA/CMT certified. Currently, I have a degree in social work . I have 10 years experience as a caregiver, I am patient with my clients because I understand what they go through . I work with my clients to be able to achieve their set goals. Secondly, attentiveness is another characteristic I bring with me when working with my clients. I am always attentive to the needs and changes that take place in their lives. I watch out for emotional and physical changes in my clients. I am compassionate, dependable and trustworthy. I am proud of my personal achievement, such as academic excellence and being awarded as the best caregiver of the month by my agency.

I have successfully completed a training program and state examination at Morning Star Academy-School of Allied Health in Rockville, MD in 2012. Outside of homecare, my hobbies include taking care of my 3 yo son, practicing special effects makeup, painting and drawing. Previously, I worked in long-term care facilities located in Virginia. I have been working in homecare consistently since 2015. My experience in homecare has been rewarding and less stressful. I love working closely with families and clients to make sure their care and companionship needs are met. I am able to adapt quickly to different working environments. I firmly believe in providing compassionate care to enhance the quality of life for an individual. As a former employee of Snakemans Tattoo Studio I learned the importance of sterilization, blood borne pathogen safety, and customer service. I also learned the value of communication, critical thinking skills, time management, and teamwork while working as a CNA at Golden Living Center and Shenandoah Valley Westminster Canterbury (SVWC). I am determined to continue to advance in learning and skills. I have demonstrated reliability and hard work in the past and continue to do so. I look forward to hearing from you.
