Hi,
My name is Candace. I am a BLS certified, Licensed CNA and Patient Care Technician with extensive skills, including EKG and Phlebotomy. I am currently working on my associate degree in nursing. I believe every distinguished career has a starting point. My current goal is to work in a hospital setting or a doctor’s office. If given the chance in a reliable setting, I will prove to be a diligent worker. I am full of empathy. I am very direct and an adaptive learner. I want to have an employer who will be supportive of me becoming a permanent member of their company. I feel I am a great candidate for this position.
