About Ebony

Ever since I was a little girl, I've wanted to help people. I started looking after family and friends as a teenager. I believe in treating people with respect, dignity and kindness. I'm very friendly, compassionate, patient and caring. Working in Healthcare is very rewarding to me because I love working with people and making them as comfortable as possible no matter what they're going through.
