Hello, I would first like to say I've been in the health care for about 7 years. I first started out in an Alzheimer's & Dementia unit. I have since then done all types of care. I come from a family of healthcare works . I was mainly inspired by my mother to start the profession. Which has been by far the most rewarding job I've had. Helping others has given me such Joy. I also decided to take the next level in my career and got in to the LPN program in June 2018. I finished the program January 2020. I am just now waiting to take my boards. I have learned so much from other nurses as a student. It has made me a more strong minded caregiver. I hope to be able to go back in a few more years to further my education and become a Nurse Practitioner.
