Michelle’s journey started with a scroll through Facebook. This is Michelle’s story, in the words Michelle shared with us in April 2024.
“I was just browsing on my Facebook when I suddenly saw Filipino Institute posts. I felt like a window of opportunity opened.”
Michelle enrolled straight away in the Nursing Assistant course, Batch 8, and enjoyed it all the way to the end of the programme. Michelle thanked trainer Ma’am Alaine for the support along the way.
Why nursing assistant?
“My inspiration in pursuing the path of a nursing assistant is the unique opportunity to help and be an advocate for our patients and their families in their journey to recovery and healing.”
For Michelle, the value of the work is in the small things: “No matter how small or simple, the kind of noble work we do has a meaningful impact on our patients’ lives.”
Where Michelle is now
When Michelle shared this story in April 2024, Michelle was working as a nursing assistant with a healthcare provider, and proud to be part of a healthcare team.
