My name is Kathryn Walker and I was a teen mom which my father pushed me to have a career in order to take care of her. Instead of going to a regular high school, I decided to go to a Vo-Tech in order to obtain my CNA license. I also ran on the local ambulance in order to gain experience as well as received my EMT license. After moving to Florida and continuing my medical career I realized the health care system in Florida wasn't as good as it was up north therefore I decided to join the military. 9 months after joining I was deployed to Iraq in which I do suffer from PTSD. I've always wanted to help people, as my uncle was in a major motorcycle accident and spent 3 years in the hospital then was transferred to a rehab facility. I'm proud of the fact that I served my county and shared an experience with other soldiers that I still consider family. I can assure you that if you choose me as your family's caregiver you will not be disappointed.
