Two year Hiatus
During my two year hiatus from working as a registered medical assistant, I have been my mother's care giver after having two heart procedures. From dates 07/2023 to 08/2025, she has made an amazing recovery and is now very self sufficient which helps me to be able to move forward in my career successfully.
