About Ashley

I originally got into care giving when my grandmother had a heart attack. She needed a lot of help and I was always around. After high school I took a cna and cpr course. The school lost accreditation and my license was invalid. My externship site ;Shore llc, offered me a full time position and I've been hooked ever sense. I love the sense of accomplishment I get from being able to help those who can't help themselves. I'm a consistent and dependable feature in their life. I look forward to being all that they need and more. I'm also pursuing my bachelor's in science in an effort to attend medical school. I just like to help people and this is the best way I know how.

    I grew up watching my parents taking care of my grand parents , I guess it comes naturally to me doing the same . Taking care of other gives you that inner satisfaction which is hard to find in other work settings. I'm proud to be a Nurse . I'm registered nurse from a foreign country working as certified nursing assistant with extensive experience working with seniors with different healthcare needs and trained to work with a lot of diverse cultures and settings. http://www.thequint.com/2015/aprhttp://www.thequint.com/2015/apr/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret
