"I do feel like I have good problem solving skills. I like to think outside of the box and try to find the best way to resolve a problem. I also try to stay aware of the fact that, although my job requires skill, I am not expected to know everything. If I reach a place in care that I feel like I need to call a supervisor to assist, I always set my pride aside and ask for help."

"I believe good problem solving skills is essential for a nursing aide.. This is one skill that I feel is important to build upon daily. I always try to look at a situation and prioritize what needs to be done so that any small issues can be quickly resolved. I also feel that incorporating good teamwork and communication is important in problem solving. It's always easier when there is more than one person working to resolve a situation."

"Problem-solving is one of my strengths. I always try to think outside of my personal emotions and address a problem directly so that I can move forward with my job."
