Hi, my name is Tana Taylor. I am a mature person with experience in both human & veterinary medical fields. I graduated from Fugazzi College with an associate's degree of applied science in medical assisting with a 4.0 gpa. My major/minor also included medical transcription, & I have extensive education & experience with various aspects of human psychology. I love animals & am a huge animal advocate, very involved with TNR for unowned, free-roaming stray & feral community cats. I also like many types of music & performing arts & have taken part in live performances in the past. 30+ years experience includes a medical clinic which housed primary care, urgent care, & occupational care, various veterinary front office as well as veterinary assisting prn, hospital HIM tech/medical records (St Thomas Nashville), hospital unit secretary (Cookeville Regional Medical Center), consistent exceptional customer service in every job I have ever held, client education (vet clinics & spay/neuter clinics), cashier (Walmart), administrative assistant , front office receptionist various jobs & front desk/night auditor at motel, retail customer service & assistant manager (SuperPetz & PetSmart), & prn/limited pharmacy (Eckerd). Since February 2023 most recently working with Pacesetters providing in home direct support for 3 ladies with levels of need 2-3 (walker, wheelchair, oxygen, nebulizer, cpap) currently working 12 hour overnight shifts. The ladies are able to do their own bathing & toileting, but I sometimes need to assist one of them with getting dressed. I am not comfortable dealing with other people's nudity & hygiene tasks on a regular, every day basis. I did have to do so recently after one of the ladies fell & broke some bones in one of her hands up until she was completely healed. I am a compassionate person who wants to make a positive difference in the daily lives of other people & animals. I am conscientious, honest, dependable, empathetic, calm, kind, & intuitive.
