Q: What motivated you to join RCCbc?   

A: Having worked along side RCCbc for a number of years, I had a good sneak peak at the work being done and the people who were doing it.

Q: What has been one of your proudest moments working at / with RCCbc?

A: My proudest moment so far, was my first day on the Front Door. All of the callers were so appreciative of our service. I would announce to each caller that I am new and still learning, they all said close to the same thing “I am just so glad there is someone here to answer these calls, this service is so helpful and appreciated”. The nurses welcoming tones and the votes of confidence from the physicians made me feel very proud to be part of the RTVS team. I’m sure I will have many more proud moment in the days to come.
