My name is Miranda. I am currently located in Bakersfield, CA. I am an online college student. I am currently working on my Bachelor's degree for Healthcare management. Once my Master's and/ or Doctorates degree has been received I would like to reach my goal as a CEO of a hospital where I can have the ability to work with all types of patients from the young in age to the young at heart. I have no kids, but I do have 2 nieces and 3 nephews. I also have two puppies who keep me up and active. I love to be outdoors, play the ukulele, and enjoy family time. I am VERY self-motivated and goal oriented. I love caring for those who need it most. No matter the situation my personal life is in, I will push it aside to make sure others are comfortable, happy, and smiling before I am. I am a people person and I get along with anyone that walks into my life, the good and the bad. I have been a CNA for about 7 years, certified through the state boards of California and I also carry a BLS for healthcare providers.      Valid Driver's License: Yes  Has a Vehicle: Yes  Can Swim Well: Yes  Smoking Status: Non-Smoker  Comfortable with pets: Yes  Languages spoken: English, English    My Nationality: Filipino  Background Check: Yes  Eligible to work in the U.S.: Yes  Civil Status: Single  Religion/Spiritual Practice: Christian        Work Experience & Education Background   7 years experience, 5 references Nursing care and rehabilitative services for those who have a stroke, brain injury, orthopedic surgery, amputee, Para/ quadriplegics, dementia, tube-feedings, Alzheimer's.      Skills:    Ambulation Assistance      Bathing Assistance      Bed Bath      Bed Pan      Catheter/ Colostomy Care      Dressing Grooming assistance      Giving Injections      Heavy Patient lifting & transfer      Hoyer Lift      Oxygen Administration      Patient Positioning      Range of Motion Exercise      Toileting Assistance      Tube Feeding     Experience and skills with following Diagnosis :    Alzheimer's      Amputee      Arthritis      Bedridden      Brain Tumor      Cancer      Chemotherapy/Radiation Treatment      Congestive Heart Failure      Decubitus Ulcers      Dementia      Diabetes      Dialysis      Fractured Hip      Hearing Impairment      Hepatitis      Hospice      Incontinence (diapers)      Malnutrition      Osteoporosis      Paralysis      Parkinson's      Pneumonia      Quad/ Paraplegic Care      Shingles      Speech Impairment      Stroke      Ventilator Dependent      Visual Impairment   Education/Training: Caregiver / Companion, CPR Certificate, College, Associates Degree, CNA      Job Preferences   Seeking work as a : Caregiver / Companion or Personal Support Worker  Position Type: Live-Out, Full Time, Part Time  Work Hours: 40 - 50 hours/week  Position Duration:    As Long as Needed   Prefer to work in:    Home Health Care      Retirement Homes      Clinic / Hospital     Desired Start Date: April 10, 2016  Desired Salary: $40/Hour or Negotiable salary  Willing to travel : Yes  Duties:    Housekeeping      Grocery Shopping      Meal Planning / Preparation      Supervise Home      Errands      Clean Bathroom      Assist with Pet Care      Assist with Walking      Vacuuming      Hand Wash Dishes      Escort to Appointments      Bathing Assistance      Alzheimer/Dementia Care      Palliative Care      Parkinson Care      Lifts and Transfers         References   Karen B.  2 years - HealthSouth Rehab Hospital      Surinder Kaur  5 years, HealthSouth Rehab Hospital
