About Latoya

I became a caregiver because I absolutely love helping people. The fact that I am able to effectively communicate and be attentive to the needs of patients, puts a smile on my face. We never know what situation we will be in throughout our lives, so I always strive to treat my patients with the utmost respect and dignity. I can honestly say that I am proud to be a CNA, where I can use my gifts and talents to be a blessing to someone else. I am a caring person, I put my patients first, and a very hard working individual.
