About Valeree

Hello, I have just recently moved to the Albuquerque area from Missouri. I am currently working on my certification for Medical Billing & Coding, as long with Certified Medical Administrative Assistant. I know some may think this is boring, but for me I grew up in a home of medicine. My mom is a Certified Medical Assistant, phlebotomist and is currently working toward becoming an office manager. During my senior year of house school, she feel in. She was having seizures & mini strokes & medical teams couldn't figure out what was causing it. We were given two options during her hospital stay: one, she go into assisted living oor we get a home nurse for her. At this time, I had decided to take on the role as a home nurse. You see my mom was able to do somethings on her own, but not everything. I began the process of doing homebound from high school. I would cater to my moms every need while finishing up my senior year. I would balance school work with helping her take care of herself & the household chores. (Leaving the rest of this story open for the interview.) A part of me wishes it would have stopped during my senior year. But I soon realized that I was made for helping people out. Those from all walks of life. Sometimes we just need someone there. Someone to keep us company or to help conquer life's everyday challenges. Or even to cheer us up when we are having a rough day. Some would see caring for others as a daunting task. I find peace & joy from it. Brings a smile to my face seeing them accomplish something they never thought they would be able to.
