Hello. I'm Amanda, a dedicated professional caregiver and nurse. I started my career in 1995 as a in-home caregiver. I obtained my Certificate Nursing Assistant License from a Nursing Home. Cared for the Developmentally Disabled in a group. Worked in a "Half-Way House" caring for mentally ill. Long Term Care Unit in the Copper Queen Community Hospital. Oct 1999 Marietta Ga Supervisor Caregiver, Assisted Living Home. Worked in a Family Practice, Woodstock. Assisted Living seduced me back as Wellness Director. Motherhood sent me to Hospice as a private contractor for 2 years. Hospital work w/ 12hr/ 3days wk. Perfect for school! Then..my second son came in 2008. 2 small children is much more work then having one!In 2009 it became obvious there is no "perfect time" Kennesaw State University for general ed. 2012 onto to Ga Highlands College. Graduation in 2015. and to speak the vows of the nurse. Emergency room nurse, floating to all sorts of units. Knowing that I couldn't forget about the dying and scared, an old calling moved me to become a Hospice Nurse. My ignorance of the business within medicine soon drove to crave the ER again. Corporate work was predictable and I was not required to deal with the money coding and approvals of Medicare to see the patient. Nursing and Medicine doctors should not be asked to deal with tge money side of Healthcare. So, back the ER. COVID called out. 14 months COVID Reponder. Divinely driven to nurse, advocate, teach, comfort, study, suggest, sweet talk, elude safety and confidence as I proceed to provide the needed care and whatever that may entail fir as long as I can. So, here I am. At your service.
