Summary

Care. This is a word I have lived by and taught to my six children. It is such a simple word and covers everything a person needs to know to be successful. I have learned this skill over the last thirty years as an RN and Homeschool mom and hope to keep learning. I truly enjoy meeting new people of all ages and situations and helping them with my compassion and strong desire to serve and of course nursing skills.
