About Glenda

I have worked with people most of my life. When I first got my license in nursing I worked in a long term facility. I love working with the elderly and consider myself a warm, loving, compassionate person. I am very reliable and punctual. I believe in keeping the client as active and involved at possible. My biggest achievement in my life are my children. I raised 5, went back to school and got my nursing license after they all were in school. I took care of my mom from 2013 to October 2016, she was my best friend. It kept her in her home until she passed. In short I like to be needed and to take of people who need me.

Nephrology Associates Inc
I worked as an assistant with Dr Achal Desai. We traveled to 4 different facilities and met our patients there. I took vital signs, did medication checks with patient and anything else required at check in. I was in charge of getting patients charts, records, tests as ordered etc. We worked with paper charts until about the last 2 years then everything was electronic. I set tests up as ordered, generated lab orders and gave patients summaries of their visit. Set up recurring appointments and took copays as needed when we traveled without our office staff. I was not an LPN when I started with Dr. Desai, my license had lapsed and I never reinstated it.
