I was picked to work on Dr. Kolczun"s private floor being a Orthopedic nurse. Orthopedics became my specialty and it was an honor to work with one of the best orthopedic surgeons in the area. It also gave me experience working with the doctors who had to clear the patients, the Heart surgeons we worked with extensively. I was also a great experience to work with the anesthesiologists who also were involved with the patients having surgery. It was an great honor to work with the best staff who took care of these patients. Being a caregiver would allow me to take care of someone one on one which is a very ideal situation to me as a nurse. I would describe myself as a very loving, thoughtful person who enjoys being with people. I was a very good nurse and I did go back to college to get my RN degree and I took several classes b

I worked as a CNA in both geriatric memory care facilities and home care for 10 years before obtaining the LPN certification. I find home care very fulfilling because I believe it is so beneficial for people to stay in their own home environments for as long as possible. I also took care of my own family member at home while attending nursing school and working as a home care CNA/LPN.
