social work intern

About

I am a empathetic and compassionate person who strives to help other whenever possible. I am very observant and look closely at the fine details of situations. I have worked in the gerontology field for a number of years before entering college. During my time at Millersville University I have been able to see my great desire to work with the aging population. I have had the opportunity to intern at a long term care facility for 450 hours along with interning at a senior center and an assisted living facility. I am seeking a full-time job where I can have hands on experience and can use the knowledge and skills I gained through my formal education as well as my internship.
