Carrie Walker

I am a well seasoned LPN with good work ethics. I believe having respect for an individual opens a line for communication. I have worked as a public health nurse for 15 + years. I have a deep desire for helping those in need with a non- judgmental approach. I have medical office experience as well as clinical nurse experience. Having a desire to learn new skills is a great opportunity for me also.
