About Me

ePortfolio

Welcome to my ePortfolio! On this website you will be following me along my journey as a graduate student in the MHST601 Course: Foundations of Health Systems in Canada. I will be using this platform to demonstrate my learning throughout the course and show my audience who I am in the world of health care.

​

I have an undergraduate degree in a Bachelor of Arts (Hons) with a specialization in Gerontology. Upon graduating from my studies I pursued a job in a nursing home as an Activity Aide where I got to work hands on with older adults who had a variety of complex health challenges including; dementia, mental health issues and addictions among other chronic illnesses. This job emphasized something I already knew prior to entering the field-that I wanted to help better our health care system and be an advocate for change.

​

Presently, I work as a Client Service Coordinator for Bayshore HealthCare in  Home and Community Care while I pursue my graduate studies. I work in an administrative role as an unregulated health professional. My primary obligation as a coordinator is to handle and document prospective client inquiries regarding requests for community care services and schedule licensed and unlicensed filed staff accordingly.

​

My goal is to enrich my gerontological background, front-line experience and current role in health care through my studies in the course. I plan to become a part of health and long-term care in an administrative management role in order to create positive change in the Health and Long-Term Care Sector.

Please continue on to my blog and following pages to learn more about my current role within the health care system and how I identify as a health professional.
