Letter to the family

I'm Dorcas from Kenya 41 years old , currently I work as a healthcare in government hospital. I'd like to work as a caregiver or nurse because I believe that social interaction and companionship can have significant positive effects on somebody's well-being. During my course, I participated in a research study that focused on the positive effects of social interaction and improved cognition. Because this care facility focuses on providing care to patients with different conditions, I believe that I can help patients experience improvements in their cognition by encouraging social interaction. I have many ideas to encourage social interaction, including planning community bonding events and engaging in individual activities with patients to stimulate memory and recognition. I hope to increase the quality of life that the patients have through my work as a nurse or caregiver here. I'm focused, flexible and well skilled wit time management that help me in my daily duties I am a licensed, certified trained nurse with over 10years of experience
