About Diana

I have compassion for the elderly. I see them as a living history. I love talking with them about their lives and experiences they have had. I worked for a lady who was eating nothing but TV dinners; which have to much salt. We would talk about food that she had eaten in her life. Soon I found my self fixing the food she loved to eat. She would tell me how she made it and I would make it that way. Soon dinner was a good thing not just something to heat up.

I worked with the MD's . I made sure they got all their paper work complete within the 14 days of discharge of a PT from the hospital. I did data entry, answered phones. pulled charts, EMR update in system. I had a spreadsheet to keep the information daily current.

Having worked in various health care professions, I find it a passion of mine to work with our elderly senior populations. I have both professional and personal experience working with loved ones who may be suffering from Diabetes, requiring assistance with meal preparations, running errands, and providing positive companionship with someone who suffers from Dementia & Alzheimer's Disease. I am proud to say that I am an honorable person who truly cares about anyone they work with, and I will always treat all individuals I provide care for as if they are my own family.

Nursing is a calling for me. Making sure that people receive the best possible care I am able to provide is my most important goal. Safety first always, compassion, dignity, privacy, respect and hope are all important attribute's that I find essential to good nursing care. It is a meaningful gratifying experience to know that I can add to someone's life and possibility bring goodness when health issues can be a challenge and so often depressing. Good nursing requires being completely present while in someone's home or in a facility. My standards are no cell phones while at work, no clock watching, and I always address people with respect by using MR.or Mrs. (last name) until I am encouraged otherwise. Using Mama or Papa and other terms of endearment are not appropriate for me personally in professional healthcare. I use old fashion "yes Mam, yes Sir, no Mam, no Sir. and in an audible understandable language. CNA #00648980
