Getting Acquainted
My Experience:
I have a lot of experience working with young children
in a school setting, the elderly in a nursing home
setting, & currently an administrative setting.
During my internship I feel that I communicated very clearly
& actively listened to what was asked of me.
I do need to improve on communication when there is a
conflict because I tend to shy away when there is conflict.
Developing Cultural Competence
External Stressors:
Computer system issues that make you push your work back
Unhappy employees/clients
Unrealistic deadlines
Internal Stressors:
Lack of sleep
Failed outcomes/goals not met
Worrying about deadlines
To relieve myself of stress in my life I enjoy going to the beach,
relaxing at home with my family watching a movie, or going out to
a nice dinner.

job working in geriatrics or
adoption and possibly
further my education.
