I am a Licensed Practical Nurse. Currently working in home care. I have been working in home care for over 20 years. Started as a PCA, and worked my way up. I enjoy meeting new people and helping them accomplish their daily goals that they can no longer safely meet by themselves. It's a great feeling to help individuals remain in their own homes for a long as possible. Everyone needs a little help now and again. I have worked with patients with Alzheimers, Parkinson Disease, Dementia and TBI. I have worked primarily with the elderly. Although my current client is much younger. I am CPR certified for the professional a well.
