About Clifton

I grew up in the health care field with a mother as a nurse. I always was and will be fascinated by the medical field and how the body works and can be healed, both on it's own and by assistance. I have spent 15 years in the 911 system running emergency calls. I have seen all there is to see and treated every type of patient there is to be treated. One the that hit me is that I would pick up patients with home assistance that were negligent and caused in some cases the family to lose their loved one too soon. I want to use my knowledge and experience to provide a higher level of care and to show that their are compassionate people that can understand what it's like to be terminally I'll and not be that way themselves, but by learning through experience and interaction. A personal achievement I suppose I would have to say is that the first year I was a paramedic I was recognized by the state with an award for a Cardiac patient I treated on the ambulance and from being in complete cardiac arrest to going home a week later. I was also given an award by Pafford the first year I worked there called Lifesaver of the Year for the treatment of my patients. It showed me that my belief of treating every patient as if they were my own family paid off.
