I started as a Behavioral Health Technician 1989 with the inpatient program working night shift. Monitoring, documentation and supervising client while they prepared meals in the am before leaving for work. Once that program closed I transferred to Day Treatment program on main campus and in Immokalee 2 days a week. Transporting clients to and from the program along with helping to conduct groups. After the closing of the Day Treatment Program I decided to stop working for one year 1990-1991 and attend Lorenzo Walker Technical College to earn my LPN. After completion and receiving my Nursing Licenses was contact by Ted Waller to help. 1991 - 2016 I worked at Bridges and CRTC until it closed then transferred to Outpatient Medical Services with supervisor Carol Besofelt and CAT program with supervisor Karen Buckner. On 2016 Feb. 14 I lost my vision in my right eye and had to stop working.
