Get to know more about me:
What makes you a good caregiver?
”With my courteousness and obliging nature, I've developed tremendous patience over the years of caring for others, which is essential when working in the health sector”
Your best day at work you’ve ever had and what made it so good.
“I was put in the children's department at Nazareth House on my first day there. Most of the children had cerebral palsy. Before, I had never met anyone with this condition. I felt a sense of joy that I had never experienced before knowing that I was here to help people who really needed my help.”
In what skills area do you feel most qualified to be a caregiver?
“Taking care of someone with a tracheostomy. I've been working with the patient for quite some time, so I feel more qualified to care for someone with a tracheostomy or similar conditions”
What makes you most excited about working with seniors?
“Some of them don't like to talk much, but most of them have stories to tell and advice to offer. My favorite part is when I can converse with them, their stories and advice are always so rich”
What’s the most interesting thing about you that we don’t know from your resume?
“I’m a writer believe it or not. I've published two books thus far on Good novel, which is an online book and novel platform. I guess that makes me quite interesting”
