I conducted comprehensive home health assessments, providing personalized care to patients in their own environments. I gathered and interpreted detailed medical, family, and social histories to better understand each patient's needs. By collaborating with an interdisciplinary team, I helped create and implement effective care plans, recommending necessary diagnostic tests and therapeutic interventions when appropriate. Additionally, I provided valuable patient education on chronic disease management and medication, empowering individuals to take control of their health and improve their quality of life.View all
