Add to FavoritesAbout Dorothy
I am currently a student, at Sacramento City College, working on an associates in science in nutrition and allied health. The end result of my educational plan is directed at becoming a registered nurse I've worked with the public for over 20 years in retail but I was introduced to the nursing field by my Mom; at the age of 8. I grew up going to her clients homes, and talking to them as a child. In church and school, I would volunteer at the two skilled nursing centers in town. Working in skilled nursing was a great reminder of the dignity and love my Mom showed for her clients, and the happiness, and distraction, I provided for the older friends I made. I strive to provide dignity to all my patients, and to be their at any capacity I can. To provide the best possible care I can within my scope of practice. Thank you.
