I care from the heart. I was at a crossroads in my life & wanted a change. Long ago I helped family & friends out, loved it. So I went back to school for Patient Care Technician, also got certified for CNA, Phlebotomy, EKG, Medical Assistant. I went to school for Dental Assistant too. I've worked doing a variety of care since. I love getting people to smile, calming their fears at night or just playing games or reading with them. I especially love to cook for them. Shortly after getting certified I took on the care of a lady who wanted to have knee surgery but kept getting sick all the time. So we changed her eating habits, made sure she went to therapy & with in 9 months she was ready to go. I just want to make a difference in people's lives.
