About Dwana

I became a CNA because I am a caregiver by nature. I love being around my Elders and adding to their quality of life. I am proud of all the quality of care, quality of life, safety and security I provided to all the residents I cared for through compassion, empathy, and understanding that presented me with an opportunity to be a CNA Quality Specialist. I am a self starter that is highly motivated to be of service to others and I take that responsibility very serious. I always put my best foot forward and I believe in giving exceptional customer service.
