I entered nursing school because I always envisioned myself working in the healthcare field, but I also wanted the opportunity to gain a better understanding with my patients which nursing allows. It is a very rewarding profession to be in because you know the care you’ve provided impacts somebody during one of their most challenging times.

I work as as Personal Support Worker for over a decade now to an individual and senior facilities and I passionately love it! And I also performed as a receptionist and scheduler of staff.

Caring for others people makes me valued and appreciated. I like to help people who are in need like taking care of elderly and others who need support mentally, physically and emotionally.

I have wanted to care for people since I was 12. It has always been a big passion of mine.

I am on the path to becoming an RN as I genuinely enjoy creating relationships with patients and getting to build rapport and trust between communities and myself in order to excel their health care and care needs.

I became a caregiver through my nursing program and I am so grateful for the opportunity it gave me to get to work in long term care. It is an honour to be able to make a positive impact on people's lives, wether it's through providing companionship, assisting with daily activities, or simply lending a listening ear.

I wanted a career where I could make a tangible difference in individuals’ lives, providing them with the support and care they need to live fulfilling lives, while also continually learning and growing professionally.

Nursing Student with a passion to help people and to make a difference in my community. There is a growing demand in this field and I hope I can do my best to meet the needs of my community.

Dida chose the caregiving path inspired by her deep-seated desire to make a meaningful difference in people's lives, especially the elderly. Her journey in healthcare began early, influenced by her upbringing in a family where caring for others was a cherished value. Dida’s current professional experience is mostly in High Care hospital settings, but would like to expand to a more personal environment like home care where her impact is more visible.
