About Sondra

I Love being a Certified Nurse Assistant! After achieving my Certification in 1998, many doors have opened for me to assist and nurture many individuals with Health, Physical and Mental ailments. Before all aspects of care comes Client safety, their Quality of Life and Integrity! Working closely with Staff from my previous workplaces, which include: Home Health Care Services, Nursing Homes with Rehabilitation, Personal Care Homes, and Private Duty Clients, I have assertained a broad spectrum of Medical experience. Along with being a Dialysis Patient Care Technician, I have had extensive hands on training as a Phlebotomist in Plasma Pheresis as well. I enjoy assisting others with their health needs and everyday living. Helping someone and bringing a smile to their face will make a world of a difference with their outcome and recovery. Overall, I'm very excited about furthering my education at this time as a Nursing Student. Knowing that I will be able to fulfill the needs of my Clients on a different, more equipped level when I receive my Associates of Science Degree as a Registered Nurse. I finally feel complete and on the right path to my Career in the Health Care Field. Aiding in one's quality of Life makes me very proud! Thank you for allowing me to assist you with your care or the care of your Loved one.
