My career started as a certified nursing assistant. I've worked in doctors offices, in hospitals such as Casa Grande Regional Hospital for 2yrs, then as a Tele tech for 5yrs. I've worked in several nursing facilities, one being Oasis Pavilion in Casa Grande, Az. In the nursing facility I worked with patients who had dementia, Alzheimers and other ailments that affect the elderly. I then started working in home health. I've worked for Brightstar Healthcare for 12 years.
