My ability to design and deliver structured lesson plans—with clearly defined, measurable goals and objectives—is a skill set that translates seamlessly into social work practice, particularly in geriatric care. I was trained to specify the conditions under which learning or behavioral change should be demonstrated, a framework that aligns closely with person-centered care planning and outcome tracking. These instructional skills allow me to break down complex interventions into accessible, goal-oriented steps tailored to each veteran’s needs. Additionally, my background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) reinforces my capacity to support change processes, whether addressing behavioral health, caregiver education, or adaptive skill-building. These bonus competencies enhance my effectiveness as a social worker, equipping me to guide aging veterans and their support networks through transitions with clarity, structure, and compassion.
