About Bianka

1. My mother owned and operated a adult care home when I was growing up. I saw first hand how I can have a positive impact in peoples lives when they get to a point where they can't do everything on their own anymore. 2. I most enjoy building a respectful and understanding relationship with my patients, so that I can provide them with the best care. 3. I would have to say being the first of eight children in my family to attend college. 4. I am a full-time mother to a six year old boy, and full-time student.
