Dorcas’s Bio
Here is the bio again for your review:
I have always had a profound passion for caring for others, which led me to pursue a career in healthcare and become a nursing student. I love being a caregiver because it allows me to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those I assist, providing them with comfort, support, and dignity during their most vulnerable moments. The genuine connections I form with patients and their families, along with seeing their progress and gratitude, fuels my commitment to this path.
My caregiving journey began with volunteer work at a local senior center, where I assisted residents with daily activities and provided companionship. This hands-on experience strengthened my ability to communicate effectively, show empathy, and respond to diverse needs. Additionally, I have experience working as a home health aide, where I supported clients with personal care, medication reminders, and mobility assistance.
I bring a range of skills and training to my role as a caregiver. I am certified in CPR and First Aid, which ensures I can respond swiftly to emergency situations. My training in patient hygiene, mobility support, and basic wound care allows me to handle a variety of caregiving tasks with confidence. As a nursing student, I am continually expanding my knowledge in clinical practices, patient assessment, and medical terminology, enhancing the quality of care I provide. My commitment to learning and growth drives me to deliver compassionate, competent care to all those I serve.
