I understand the importance of accurate documentation and ethical practice, adhering to legal standards while prioritizing patient safety and comfort. My goal is to further develop my critical thinking abilities, enhance my communication skills, and contribute positively to interdisciplinary healthcare teams.

Through both roles, I am committed to continuous professional development, embracing challenges as opportunities for growth, and making a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals in need of support and care.
