About Nakeisha

I am a dedicated worker who's passionate about taking care of my patients and ensuring the safety of each person I take care of. I've been part of the healthcare team for 13 years. I started out as a Certified Nursing Assistant in 2009 to hopefully, one day become a nurse. The empathy that I have for my patients led me to become part of the Licensed Practical Nursing program with one semester away from completion. I love taking care of my patients and always go over and beyond the call of duty. I'm qualified to take care of your loved one with a professional background to prove it!
