Giving compassion service is important to me, along with noticing what is needed. I go the extra mile in helping the client and enjoy serving people.

I play the piano and have brought an important element of enjoyment to Bonaventure, by providing music now and again. My clients appreciate this gift, and I freely give it.

I am able to make quick decisions; think on my feet. I am a good listener, and enjoy conversing and making people feel appreciated. I know the names of many of the elders even though they are not my responsibility. I feel it's important be aware of others and their basic human needs of being acknowledged on a daily basis. I love what I do; supporting my clients, whether it be meeting their cleanliness needs, housekeeping requirements, food preparation, shopping, talking, reading etc. I support them in whatever way I can.

On Fridays, at Bonaventure I play the piano during lunch. It is appreciated by the people enjoying lunch, as well as the staff.
