Nicole’s Bio

My name is Nicole and I'm a 27 yr old mommy of two. I am married and have worked as needed as a certified nursing assistant at a hospital for 7 years. I am cpr certified and have worked in a med/surg orthopedic unit as well as in radiology and ultrasound as an aide. The biggest reward of my job is knowing that even in the smallest way, I've helped in a person's care by either assisting them in daily activities, rehab, or hygiene, or whatever else the task may be and that they feel better, safer, or more comfortable because of it. I take a lot of pride in doing a good job and am very empathetic towards patients. I am home now more with my kids so my hours are more flexible to travel to a home and help someone.
