About Nicole

Sorry! I am currently employed. I will update my profile again if I become available.I am a Licensed Vocational Nurse. This is a dream I started several years ago, but life got in the way. I am now back on track and excited to be back in the field I love. I love providing care for people in their homes because it is more focused on the care of the specific individual. I am CPR certified and had a state background check in order to qualify for school. I know in Home Care it is important to have a good match of personalities, and I seem to get a long rather well with the clients I have had the privilege of caring for. I look forward to being a loving care provider for you or your family member!
