Cristina B. Care Companion in Lehigh Valley, PA 18001

With over 25 years of experience in private caregiving, I am well-versed in administering prescribed medications, assisting with daily living activities, personal care tasks, and adhering to patient healthcare plans. My dedication to providing compassionate and comprehensive patient care perfectly aligns with the responsibilities of this role.

In my recent role as a Private Caregiver for a Private Family, I honed my skills in patient management, phlebotomy, EKG, and maintaining medical records, among others. My ability to efficiently handle EMR/EHR systems and ensure compliance with HIPAA and OSHA regulations has been fundamental in providing exemplary care and support. Additionally, my proficiency in multiple languages enhances my ability to communicate effectively with patients and their families, ensuring their comfort and understanding throughout their care.

I bring a robust set of skills including vital signs monitoring, venipuncture, sterilization techniques, as well as a deep understanding of microbiology, anatomy, and medical terminology. My strengths in problem-solving, adaptability, and patient advocacy empower me to handle the diverse needs of patients while maintaining a high standard of professionalism.

I hold a Bachelor of Arts in Communication from Saint Paul University, Philippines, passed and certified in written and hands on trainings in Northampton Community College in Pennsylvania, Merit Institute in New Jersey and 7 years clinical experience at Lehigh Valley Health Network in Pennsylvania, which has equipped me with exceptional interpersonal and organizational skills. These skills complement my medical expertise, enabling me to provide holistic care to my clients.

I am eager to bring my expertise, dedication, and passion for patient care to your team at Medical Caregiver/ Companion.
