I started my journey into the medical field at 18 when I got my first job doing medical insurance. I became a STNA at 19 while just looking for a new job and I guess I came across my passion and I've loved it every since. I enjoy helping those in need, providing care, support and when needed, a listening ear. Being a STNA/caregiver is much more deeper than cleaning a person and you have to really have a passion for it to understand that. I have since being a STNA, began to further education into nursing and I have been in college a year now.
