About Kimberly

I feel I was blessed with the caregiving mentality at a very early age. I have an aunt who is only 5 years older than me and she has Cerebral Palsy. We are very close and were inseparable as children, I did all of her daily needs dressing, bathing, transferring out of bed and to bathroom without being asked. I saw she needed help and I just jumped in and did it. Years later as an adult I went on to be a CNA and I did this work CNA, home health & hospice for 10 years until I started raising my 5 children then I stepped back because I felt I couldn't give my full dedication that a person or people need if my children needed me. Now my children are older and I am coming back into the medical field eager and ready to give wholeheartedly. I went back to school and obtained my LVN license and I'm taking an online course to get my BSN and RN. I am bonded as well. I take caring for others very seriously. It is my passion to help others in any way that I can.
