What is it about your job that inspires you?
My inspiration comes from my patients/clients. I just try to do my best in helping them with their basic needs. Their gratefulness makes me want to do more. The smile and joy that comes from clients makes me want to go the extra mile and provide excellent service.
Share a favorite memory from home care?
One day I had the opportunity to celebrate my client’s birthday with him and his family. It was a very happy day.
What is the most CHALLENGING part of your job?
It is always difficult when you lose a client after so many years of caring for them. Seeing a client at the hospital is always tough for the staff and family.
Why should families consider PAN?
PAN is the full package! They provide the best service to their clients.
