About Tamara

I became a CNA as a young teenager and have remained in the health field. I always desired to become a nurse as a young girl to help care for others. I have been a LPN for 19 years. I have worked in a variety of healthcare settings including home care services. I enjoy helping improve my clients' quality of life. It is very rewarding to know that I make a difference in the lives of others.

I became a caregiver twenty years ago when my mother-in-law was ill. It is God's work, and I get fulfillment out of giving back to those who always gave of themselves to us. Being kind and patient with the needy is a feeling of accomplishment. I am a widow, and mother of two sons. One is a teacher, and the other is a ophthamologist.
