Diana Weaver
LVN

Long Beach, CA

What people said about Diana:
"Diana, an outstanding LVN, shows professionalism and care in her work with patients. She is organized, detail-oriented and prompt when completing clinical notes which makes it easy to coordinate care with her."

- Oscar Parel, Administrator, Eminence Home Health Care, Inc.

Diana has more than 25 years of experience working in healthcare, starting from high school when she elected hospital occupations. When she helped her first patient, she knew she wanted to be a nurse eventually but she started a family soon after, so she worked in multiple roles like as an urgent care receptionist, assistant office manager of a chiropractic firm and certified medical assistant and technician for an orthopedic practice before returning to school for her LVN degree and IV certification. She now works as a home health nurse and shows a true passion for serving patients in need of healing, compassion and a shoulder to lean on. Diana is motivated by pushing herself to learn new skills and goes above and beyond in her work. She’s also a spiritual person and enjoys encouraging others with her positive vibes.
