Dedicated Patient Care Assistant with experience at Mercy South Hospital, skilled in vital signs monitoring and patient documentation. I have the ability to ensure safety compliance, and collaborate effectively as a team player. I pay great attention to pressure points, such as the heels, shoulders, and tailbone. I am committed to enhancing patient care, consistently improving the quality of service, and always willing to learn new things.
As a PCA, my job was to get the patients' vitals, check their blood sugars if there was an order for it, document I&Os, get the patients' weights, give baths using CHG, make sure bed alarms were set, provide Foley care, and put PureWick devices on male and female patients if they were incontinent. Order patients' meals, help prep, and sometimes feed them if the patients are not able to do so.
