Michael Amoah

I am a registered Continuing Care Assistant (CCA) with 15 years of experience working at Melville Lodge LTC. In this role, I provided compassionate, person-centered care to residents in a long-term care environment, assisting with activities of daily living such as bathing, dressing, grooming, mobility support, and feeding while maintaining residents’ dignity and comfort. I worked closely with nurses and the healthcare team to monitor residents’ conditions, report changes, and ensure a safe and supportive environment. My experience has strengthened my skills in communication, teamwork, dementia care, and building trusting relationships with residents and their families.

I have completed education in Continuing Care Assistance (CCA) along with studies in psychology and sociology. This combination has provided me with both practical healthcare skills and a strong understanding of human behavior, mental health, and social relationships. My CCA training prepared me to assist individuals with daily living activities, personal care, and mobility support, while my background in psychology and sociology helps me better understand clients’ emotional, mental, and social needs, allowing me to provide compassionate, patient-centered care.
