I became a certified nursing assistant out of high school during the summer of 1990. From there I continued consistent care within two Residential Care Facilities one was long-term Elderly Care II was Alzheimer's and Dementia. Following that for a consistent six years I worked within and Rehabilitation Unit at a local hospital that provided physical occupational and speech language therapy. After this time. I chose to stay home and raise my family for 5 years with my husband. Shortly after I slowly began getting back into the nursing assistant caregiving field which allowed me to work around my family schedule with flexibility.
