About Twana

I am a loving person, great listener, and love to help others that's in need of care. The medical field is my passion! I enjoy taking care of people of all ages that needs assistance due to thier disabilities. The most important thing about being a caregiver is to see a client's heart smile with the joy of knowing that I care for them as a human being with respect, dignity, and love. While in my youth I have always wanted to be a nurse. As a child I watched my Grandmother (whom was diabetic) give herself insulin shots daily and I would always tell her: When I grow up I'm going to be your nurse. So I dedicate my career in the medical field to my loving and caring Grandmother. I am very proud of myself being able to help others by achieving and accomplishing my certificates as a CNA and MA.
