About April

I became a caregiver to help others and also help care for my elderly grandfather. Nursing is a part of my Family and was a goal of mine to continue my education and help my family. My mother father and aunt are all in the nursing feild and have ran an adult care home for ten years. One of my achievements was becoming a certified caregiver and manager. I have over twelve years experience as a caregiver and have a wide scope of practice ranging from pediatric care, working with people with developmental disabilities, and geriatric care. I am very caring capable reliable and experienced. My goal is to continue my education and become an advanced practice nurse working in labor and delivery.
