About Katie

I have been in health care for over 20 years. Caring for all ages and abilities. I started as a CNA, bathing, feeding, dressing and walking. I, went back to school to become a medication aide where I passed medication and medication reminders and Range of motion assistance . I went on to train in wound care where I did wound care treatments. And on to health unit coordinator where I put in doctors orders. I love being able to help others feel more comfortable, loved and important.

I've always been one to care for others. My empathetic nature makes its a natural experience. I am a detail oriented person, which I find to be necessary in this field. I decided to get my CNA as a way to exercise my abilities to be a caregiver to others. I have since begun other ventures in life, but still hold a special place in my heart for caregiving
