i began as a caregiver many years ago taking care of my grandmother. i believed that no one else could give her the tlc that i possessed. after she passed i join the military and found great joy in taking care of the wounded troops. It gave me a thrill when i would see the affect my work had done in making patients well. After leaving the military, i worked in light industrial sector but found i was really missing the medical aspect of healing people so i began working with older adults, i found this challenging i then applied for my certification, after a couple of year i started and completed my L.P.N. school which i have complete as of now i'm waiting to take my licensing examination.
