My name is Estolia Garica (Toya). Love nursing I have always wanted to be a nurse. When I was about 12 years old, my father was in the hospital and I saw what the nurses where doing and how well they cared for my father and other patients, and that is when I decided I wanted to be a nurse.

I care for the elderly and disabled as if they were my parents. I enjoy work with elderly and disabled.
