********************@***********.***
My co-workers describe me as "always busy doing something " I enjoy being a nurse and treat all of my residents and patients with respect and care for them and get upset to see another employee favor or dislike a resident or treat them unfair. I was a CNA before a nurse and I am more than willing to help them out, I just want the residents taken care of.
