marna corver

A self-motivated, hardworking individual, with strong leadership characteristics. I often take the role as 
spokesperson and am quick to come up with suggestions in terms of improvement. I have a strong drive to reach 
my objectives and if well directed, led by example. I am a decision maker, which makes my decisions 
autonomously, guided by strong ethical values and principles. I am a helpful person, who assists not only to 
reaching the objectives, but also assists stragglers - where possible, and will stand up as an advocate for my 
patients when needed. I have the ability to evaluate a scenario in terms of role definition and the phase in which 
the process is, in order to base decisions on a wide set of criteria. I can implement processes to unstructured 
events. I am excellent with interpersonal skills, a good listener, avid time-keeper, able to multi-task and a 
perfectionist in my work. I see my patients/clients as individual holistic human beings, thus each care-plan is 
unique to the specific patient/client’s needs
