About Avery

I am a junior Biology major at Northern Kentucky University. I am studying Biology in hopes to attend Physician Assistant school after graduation. I recently got certified as a Kentucky Nurse Aid, and have worked as an in home caregiver for an elderly couple. I really enjoyed staying with them, even though it was such a short amount of time. The wife had a compound wrist fracture, and the husband could not fully care for himself. I learned so much in the 5 short weeks working for them. I am truly passionate about patient care! Especially elderly patient care, I am planning on specializing in Geriatrics in PA school. Please let me know if you have any further questions! I look forward to hearing from you. ***Will get background check soon, waiting on paycheck.
