I am a nursing graduate waiting to take my state boards. I have 8 months experience in a long term sub-acute unit, 6 months experience in a long term Alzheimer's care facility, and 2 months experience in a general long term care facility. I am a hard worker, and I am quick to learn. I am more than willing to learn anything needed to be more applicable for a job. I chose to go into nursing because I want to help people. I had a personal family experience, the nurses and caregivers were amazing and incredibly helpful. Since then, they have been my inspiration to help others in a situation I know all too well.
