About Pamela

Part of loving the healthcare field is also the desire to help and assist people in need. What I like about it is that when you know you take care and help people,those people is grateful and thankful that you're there, and I do love to hear it, it motivates me. Even if I may not be able to practice my Degree in Psychology as a career, I would still be able to apply it in my daily living also to person/people that I help. I am optimistic in a sense that even I has tough times in my life I didn't allow it to affect my job and how I treat people around me.
