About Kishwana

I am currently a CNA and love being in the healthcare profession. I have a passion and desire to help others in need and give friendly companionship to those who need it. I absolutely LOVE to give back to others and my community. I feel everyone should be treated equally whether they be physically or mentally disabled and everyone need someone to properly care for them where they cannot. I am very proud of becoming a CNA and this is just a stepping stone in my career. I will continue to go to school for LPN and then RN but I would like to stay in the area as a caregiver and not necessarily work in a hospital or have to be in a medical building.
