About Diane

1. I became a caregiver to make a difference in many people lives who can not care or do some of the things in life that they could do before their health failed them. 2. I Love making patients feel that they still have their independence and that they can still be productive and apart of family and society. 3. I think that obe personal achievement was that I made a decision to be A Certified Nurses Assistant. I have always Loved taking care of the elderly and other people. I have alot of compassion towards their feelings. 4. My name is Diane Ratliff and I'm happily married for 30 yrs. I have 2 beautiful children and 3 wonderful grandchildren. I have resided at my resistance for 30 yrs and I have a dog and fish tank they are my babies. I have worked in my field for a little over 25 yrs in a variety of settings from Hospitals, Nursing Homes, Private Duty to Home Health. I really Love what I do especially when I bring just a glimmer of a smile because of my care for my patients and their families.
