About
As a goal-oriented, dedicated and experienced healthcare professional who has been working in healthcare for over eight years now. More so, I have worked as a community support worker for Open Skies Healthcare Organization.

Additionally, with strong interpersonal, mental health and effective communication skills, I easily connect with people and easily adapt in new environment as well. My problem-solving abilities, time management skills, organizing skills, attention to details, etc., allow me to address the diverse needs of the population I serve.

Through my integrity, treatment coordinator, community support worker, and leadership qualities supervising TFPs and coordinating meetings like TTM, etc., with team members I am well-equipped to uphold the core values of your company.
