About Rachel

I gained my CNA certification in April 2010. I worked in a hospital for 4 years on a Cardiac Floor. I performed vital signs, hourly rounds, Activities of daily living, changed linens, and bed baths. While working there i was trained to perform EKG testing and certified to draw blood. After having my son i decided to move to the home health field to get my desired hours and not lose out on spending time with my son.
