My name is Gillen, I became an LVN to first and foremost, help people! I always say that I know I can not fix everything but I see my job to make everything as easy as I can on patients and families. I try to make my patients as comfortable and pain free as I can to make, what is usually a pretty difficult time, a little more bearable. I treat my patients like real people, each with their own set of problems, emotions, and life complexities. Nursing isn't one size fits all to me. I work with them to do what's best for them.
