Sample Home Health Aide Resume

The Home Health Aide resume is written with the description about the candidate's experience, and qualification to grab the best opportunity in the field. Home Health Aide is a personal care-taker of a bed-ridden or an incapable patient. His main job revolves around the patient, which involves taking care of the patient's bathing, bandaging, food and medicines.

The home health aide should attend the patient; being available for his every minute demand. The health aide should give prescribed medicines to his patient in a timely manner. He is supposed to look after the amount and quality of food intake consumed by his patient. As most of the times, a home health aide works personally for a patient, who is bed-ridden; he should be readily available for the patient's toiletry needs. For the purpose of serving a mentally and physically weak patient in a proper manner, the home health aide has to be friendly and caring by nature. As a fresh and smiling face can work wonders for a patient's health; a health aide has to be polite and encouraging towards the patient.

Since a home health aide keeps keen check on the patient's health; it is his duty to maintain a detailed health progress report for the doctors, which will help them in the treatment course.
