Ashley Aquino SECU Hospice House 426 Hospital Rd. Smithfield, NC. 27577 919.209.5100 Contact: Deborah Gruver

1) What type of education and training prepared you for this career field?

• One of my first jobs was at a pediatrician’s office which gave me an interest in nursing and experience in working in a routine health care setting.

2) What type of education and training would you recommend for someone just starting out in this career? For someone who wanted your job?

• Start with becoming a CNA to get hands-on experience of what it is like to work in the medical field whether it be on the floor with patient’s health care or in the office dealing with paperwork and other aspects of the daily routine.

3) What types of skills are necessary for succeeding in this career?

• Good communication skills always! You need to also be empathetic, even in dealing with office work you encounter many families going through one of the most difficult and emotional times that anyone can go through.

4) How has this career field changed since the time you started in it?

• Technology has changed the most, we don’t deal with paper charting anymore and there is a lot more continuing education classes offered that are easily accessed online.

5) What advice do you have for someone considering this career?

• Make sure that you are committed to this if you are considering getting into the health field in any department. It can be a very physically and emotionally demanding.

6) How did you know this was the right career for you? Did you consider any other careers?

• I was very fortunate in knowing that I always wanted to work in a career that allowed me to help people. When I was much younger I thought of working with animals but I truly wanted to help and care for people.

7) Are you passionate about your career? What makes you passionate about your career?

• I truly enjoy caring for people and that’s what gives me the drive to continue to stay in this profession for the last 35 years.

8) (question 9) What other careers or industries could you work in with your education and experience?

•

An educator, I have known many nursed who have gone on to teach continuing education classes for other nurses and clinical staff. There is also Administrative Coordinator. This allows you to handle more of the administrative work than the patient care in a health care facility.

9) (Question 11) How has technology changed this career?

• There is no more paper charting! It makes it a lot faster most of the time. You still run into those difficult days where maybe the system is down and that can be frustrating. The paperwork is a lot easier in some ways. You can now email required paperwork to new incoming patient’s which can save a lot of time with the admission process and they can email it right back with it already read and signed. When they show up most of their admission paperwork is already done.

10) (question 12) How has the economy affected this career?

• There are more fields of nursing that you can work in today that were not around when I first came out of nursing school. All the different healthcare facilities have really opened many new jobs for nursing and administrative and human resources. The list goes on.

11) (question 13) How long have you worked for this employer?

• Three years, but I have been a nurse for 35 years.

12) (question 15) How does your employer differ from its competitors?

• I have not worked in other hospice care facilities but where I am now you can see that the staff strives to bring the best care to their patients.

13) (Question 16) How did you get your current job?

• I followed up with the hospice director and being proactive. I wanted to make sure that I could get the opportunity in an interview to show them why I felt I was right for this job.

14) (question 17) What is your exact job title and how long have you been in this job?

• I am a Registered Nurse, here I am a Charge Nurse. I have been a nurse for 35 years and have been working as Charge Nurse for the last three years.

15) (question 20) What do you like most about your job?

• I enjoy the people that I work with and the people that I work for. It’s difficult working with patients that you know have no recovery ahead of them but it really is very rewarding to be there for the families and try to make anything you can just a little bit easier on them, no matter what that may be.

16) (question 21) What do you like least about your job?

• Not being able to comfort some families during the death process. It is very difficult to watch someone grieve and not be able to do anything.

17) (question 22) Can you describe a typical day at your job?

• Administer medication • Complete patient assessments • Supervise nursing staff

• Provide educational support for families • Complete order forms, admission paperwork.

18) (question 35) What is the employment outlook for this career field? How much demand is there for entry-level job-seekers?

• I think the outlook is positive because there will always be a need for nurses and other health care workers to help run these facilities. Entry-level demand would be high as current nurses age and new technology comes out. I think it would be ideal to hire an employee at the start of their career with fresh training with newer technology.

All About Me BY: ASHLEY AQUINO

A few quick facts

Originally from NY, I have now lived in NC for five years

Only one brother of mine remains living in NY.



I have only ever lived here and in NY.



I have no children but I have two chihuahua’s.



I am currently a CNA



I have been working as a CNA for almost nine years.



I began working in a group home for developmentally disabled adults when I was 18 years old.



I am currently in my fourth semester of Medical Office Administration in an effort to work in an alternate career in the medical field.



I have only one semester left with just two remaining classes to finish up.



Chocolate has always been my favorite snack.



I love Spanish food.



Currently my favorite TV shows are Better Call Saul and Shameless.

Heathers has always been one of my favorite movies. I love 80’s and 90’s movies.



I love to read when I have the time and used to love to read James Patterson and Anne Rule books.



I love going to the beach when I can.

ď ľ

I have picked up crocheting as a hobby over the last two years. I love to crochet, especially in the winter time when it is too cold to spend much time outside.

ď ľ

I love making blankets and have recently begun trying to learn how to crochet little stuffed animals.



Aside from crocheting, I have also recently gotten into gardening.



After recently moving I have been trying to set up a garden of flowers in the front and back whenever I get time.



I love sunflowers, zinnias, lilies, and I love bright colors.



I hate spiders! So it has been a bit of a challenge when I come across creepy little critters while digging in the dirt.

Future Plans 

I am due to finish up Medical Office Administration in December 2017.

I hope to obtain a job in a medical office nearby my home and gain experience.

Perhaps after working for a year in a medical office I will go back to school in order to one day obtain a Bachelor’s degree in Medical office administration.
