Social Work Intern at St. Catherine Hospital
I am passionate about caring for senior citizens and consider myself an advocate for their care and needs. I am interested in case management and community outreach as well as healthcare and information and referral systems. I love working with older adults and would like to be in an administrative role where I can help connect seniors to programs and assistance, as well as assist in creating a plan of care for their long-term well-being.
