I would like to say thank you to all the staff, Director Barb, my instructor Ms Marilee and CI Ms Cita

for all their effort in mentoring me and providing excellent references to VCH recruitment team.

Despite being new graduate with no prior healthcare experience I am proud and great full to be

chosen to join the VCH Health Care Assistant Team working at VGH Banfield Pavilion. I have been

part of the team since April 23rd and I would say I am lucky and happy to be here.
