I'm a 27 year old female from Sioux City IA. I have two daughters, and in my free time I like to spend as much time with them I can. We enjoy playing outside a lot! I got into the health field when I was in high school. During that time I started out as a Tech in the nursing home. I would pass out meals to the residents, get fresh water for them, and just help out with what I could. During my senior year I took the CNA class and once finished with that I continued to work in the same nursing home for 9 years are a CNA. While working as a CNA I took a course to become a CMA which is a Certified medication assistant. I have continue my occupation in this field for the past 10/11 years. I enjoy taking care and helping the elderly in anyway I can. Seeing the smiles and happiness that come from your patients is one of the best feelings in the world. I just want to be able to continue to help people whether it's in their home or a nursing home.
