About Yolanda

I first became to care about people when my grandma was sick and unable to take care of herself so I decided that I was going to help my mom take care of her. There is so much elderly/people abuse in this world that I wanted to make a difference in put trust back into people who are needing help. My most personal achievement has to be that i raised four of the best children in the world. I love to plan and decorate for special events, go to the beach where it is calming to me. I went to school to become a Medical Assistant but no luck in finding a job. I went back to school and became a CNA and plan to take a course for Acute Care..I am currently working in a psychiatric facility this is very challenging for me but I enjoy my job very much.
