Recently graduated with honors from CSCC's fast track accelerated LPN program. I've received my CNA & PCA from CSCC, AAS degree from OSU, and I am CPR certified. During high school, I was trained and worked as a student athletic trainer. My experience caring for seniors includes: working as a care companion for a quadriplegic patient through care. com, numerous amounts of clinical hours preformed at nursing homes, hospitals, Franklin county prison's medical center, and at live-in rehabilitation centers, on the skilled rehab floor. Patients cared for on this floor consisted of those recovering from injuries due to falls, strokes, MI's, pneumonia, or surgeries for various reasons. My experience consists of bathing, dressing, feeding, and ambulating patients. Passing meds, starting IVs, giving insulin and TB injections, inserting catheters, bowel prep including dispensing enemas, wound care and dressing changes, taking vitals and assessing patients.
