Healthcare Aide / PSW LinkedIn About section example

I help seniors live with dignity and comfort. For four years I've worked as a personal support worker in long-term care, assisting residents with bathing, dressing, eating, mobility and transfers. The part of the job I value most is knowing each resident's routine — who likes their tea before breakfast, who needs extra time in the morning. That knowledge makes dementia care calmer for everyone. I'm trained in Gentle Persuasive Approaches and safe lifting, and I hold current CPR and First Aid. I'm looking for a full-time PSW role in long-term care or home care in Peel Region. Families and care managers are welcome to connect.
