Hi, my name is Michelle Franklin. I was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, and have lived in Minnesota for nearly 32 years. I have over 27 years of experience as a nursing assistant, working in a variety of settings including long-term care, home care, private duty, hospitals, and clinics. Throughout my career, I have gained extensive hands-on experience with patient care, including monitoring vital signs, managing drains (JP), Foley catheters, NG tubes, feeding tubes, ostomies, and urostomies. I am also experienced with EKGs, blood glucose monitoring, insulin administration, and medication support. I am truly passionate about what I do and take pride in providing compassionate, high-quality care. I find great fulfillment in giving back and contributing to our society, especially when working with the elderly, who have paved the way for us today.
