I am a mom of twin boys, I have been in the medical field for over 20yrs, started off and a CNA in a nursing home and went in to get my Medical Assistant certification. I worked in the ED and after having children I worked in the lab processing specimens and drawing labs but eventually missed patient care patient contact. So after the kids were older, I started a job in Urgent Care and I love it. I enjoy talking and listening to patients. You can find out a lot about a person in a short amount of time and many older adults have very interesting history.
