About Kristen

I am a 45 yr old mother of 3. I have been in the medical field for over 25 yrs. I have worked in doctors offices, from pediatrics, internal medicine, to obgyn. I have also worked in the ER, both regular ER and Pediatric ER. I have worked in ICU with critical patients, and hospice patients. I have done some home care with an ALS patient and a patient with Dementia. I am a very caring and compassionate person. My main goal when I am working is the comfort of my patients. I am flexible when it comes to the type of patient or the age of the patient that I am caring for. I am very good at multitasking and prioritizing.
