My name is Taniyah I am 24 years old l've been a patient caregiver for going on 5 years now I'm currently in nursing school attending Ecpi university to become a licensed practical nurse. What made me love & want to join this field is when I was 18 I had to start taking care of my grandfather who then was diagnosed with stomach cancer as I worked with him daily I became more familiar with caregiving after he passed I told myself I wanted to keep going with it and im so proud how far I've become & absolutely love the decision i made with continuing to do it.
