Deborah’s Bio
Hello, my name is Deborah. I am a registered nurse with almost 40 years experience in the hospital setting all across the country, I was a travel nurse for the last 19 years of my career in the hospital and therefore, I have a vast level of knowledge and experience. I am trying to leave the hospital environment as the health care system has become very busy and has ultimately taken away from the very thing that I enjoy so much about my job. I love getting to know my clients, assisting them and their families with the knowledge that they need to make informed health care decisions. I also very much enjoy direct contact with my clients in the desire to help you be as independent as possible which will hopefully allow you to stay in your home. My most recent experience was for 2 years in a home care situation with a number of amazing care givers. The client after 2 years was transitioned to hospice and it was very important to her that she would pass in her home with her family near. We were able to provide her last wishes and this made us all feel very fulfilled. I am available to help with medical needs, as I have said I have worked with many acutely ill clients. If this sounds like something that would meet your needs please let me know so we can talk. I have MY BLS certification at this time. I can provide reference as requested. Thank you.
