About Amanda

I'm a young lady who enjoys helping others and taking care of people. I have taken care of patients of all ages from Newborns to Geriatrics. I am very experienced with tracheostomies, dementia, wound care/prevention, feeding tubes, foleys, and much more. I have my BLS and C.N.A. License and have been current for 10 years. I love being able to make a family feel comfortable knowing that the ones they care about are well taken care of and I take pride in that. I'm always on time and dependable. I keep a job in the hospital in a Cardiac Step-Down unit so I am very experienced with extremely sick patients. I am very energetic, polite, and compassionate. Honesty is the best policy in my book. I am an open book so please feel free to ask me anything and I will be more than happy to set your mind at ease.
