About Amy

I am currently a self-employed Caregiver with over 15 years of experience. I also am a CNA/GNA in the state of MD and I hold a BLS CPR card issued from the American Heart Association. I have worked in hospitals, doctors offices (plethora of practices), and held corporate jobs as well. I have always enjoyed working with people who need help. Whether that be the elderly or children. I'm also attending school to become a Physicians Assistant!
