About Carmen

I have over 25 years of working in the healthcare industry. I worked for seven years at the Hahnemann University Hospital in the ER, where I helped nurses in providing care to ER patients as a medical assistant and healthcare administrator. I worked 10 years at a cancer center helping patients and families in the med-surge and ICU unit by providing assistant in their medical needs. I was the caregiver to my mother for 17 years while she was in and out of hospitals dealing with health issues and renal failure. Currently working with a staffing agency picking up assignments as needed.
