Hello! My name is Carol Allende, I am 30 years young currently in pursuit of my Nursing degree. I have been in nursing for over 10 years, started working nursing homes at the age of 18 (2007) and worked my way into the hospice world. I am currently employed in a Hospice agency, but work in the office and would like to have a little more hands on during some of my spare time. In my 10 years of hospice experience, I have worked with patients with all types of limiting illnesses making myself more self efficient to be more proactive and helpful to my patients and their families. The only setting I would not enter was the acute hospitals. I am familiar with caring for the patients with Foley's, Colostomy's, Tracheostomy's, Hoyer lifts, and etc. If you would like to know more specifics, feel free to reach out to me and I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. I am proud of my 10 years in nursing, evolving into a person who can adapt to different personalities and circumstances.I hope to bring inspiration and joy to someone's life while assisting those in need. I do work from 8a-5p right now, but am available evenings (time to be determined based on location) and weekends.
