I'm originally from Long Island and came to FL in 98'. My healthcare career began in 2000 when I attended EKG/ CardiovascularTechnician school. I moved to TN in Sept. 2000 and landed my first ALF caregiving job. When I returned back in 2002, I started my second one and after that. I just fell in love with taking care of people and eventually went and furthered my education by attending surgical tech, phlebotomy and LPN schools. I give my all to whomever I'm caring for. Keeping in mind that their needs come first, that I am a guest in their home and it's a privilege to be welcomed there. I've been asked by numerous residents/patients if I liked my job, I respond with , " No, I love it!" To be able to spend time with those in need, and to be able to relate to the feeling even though our situations may be different, nonetheless, it's the emotional component that makes people get that you understand what they are going through and that they aren't alone. I give every person I come in contact with 110% of my undivided attention and that all needs or wants and met to the best of my ability. ** I had a level 2 backgtohnx check completed last December and still have on active background check available for viewing if needed,
