About Linda

I have been a part time and full time CNA along with working a full time DME job. I especially enjoyed working the alzheimer's unit. I like the one on one also. I always keep in the back of my head that one day this could be me. I guess this is why it is my passion. I have received awards but, I don't do it for the rewards. I do it for the patient and I do for my soul. It warms me.
