Paste it into Word, Notion or ChatGPT — the structure survives.

Three mistakes this example avoids

  • Writing only soft traits ('compassionate, patient') without the ADLs and conditions you actually handled.
  • Leaving out availability — agencies match caregivers to shifts before anything else.
  • Omitting certifications' expiry and transfer/lift training like Hoyer lift use.
