Taneisha Coston recently shared her thoughts on her role as a Respiratory Therapist, her journey with Apria, and some personal details to help us get to know her better:

Why did you join Apria and what makes you stay?

I originally joined Apria because of my previous work schedule in sleep labs at night. Those work hours at that time did not work well for my family. Family is always first in my book. I continue to stay because I have built some strong relationships with some coworkers and especially my NIV patients and their family members. I feel like I have to make sure they are ok and well taken care of.

Why are you proud to work at Apria?

I take pride in working for Apria because of my NIV patients. Some of them have become extended family to me.
