Hear From Our Nurses
How do you connect with the mission of CSHHC and community healthcare? And why is it important for an organization to have employees that connect with the mission?
I have been an RN for 35 years. I have worked in Public health for 27 years and in the hospital setting for 10 years. Working at CSHHC in the past 3 years has allowed me to continue to follow a lifelong passion of working in pediatrics and to reach a wide community of people that I identify with and care deeply for. As a Hispanic Nurse, I deal daily with patients who appreciate and feel they are getting excellent health care because there is someone who understands their culture and speaks their language. I regularly speak Spanish and Portuguese to assist in providing high standards of care.

Management at CSHHC has created a climate that fosters professional growth and respects all team members. I have felt part of a team that has become my work family. I have felt comfortable being able to express my concerns and ideas to my manager.
