Testimonials

“The team at BC Women’s Gynecology Surgical Suites are a welcoming and supportive group of people. As an operating room nurse, you will work closely with surgeons, anesthesiologists, anesthesia assistants and other nurses. We see many patients come through the OR, and my goal is always to provide a positive experience for each patient I meet; to make them feel at ease and well cared for. It’s rewarding to know that my work can make a difference in a person’s life.”

Kristina Augustin, RN
 
“What I find to be the most rewarding aspect of my job is the ability to connect with my patients on a very intimate level. As a perinatal nurse, I am involved in a woman's most memorable, special life event, whether that is giving birth for the first time, or adding an addition to their family. With my compassion and patience, I care for new mothers and newborn infants in the hours and days immediately following birth. This involves providing a lot of teaching and education to new families. My goal in every shift is to become a trusted advocate for my patients as the postpartum period can be very frightening and overwhelming for families. Providing encouragement and helping parents adjust through this special experience is one of the greatest benefits of being a perinatal nurse.”

Sasha Johal, RN
 
“I love working on FIR. I get to see mothers who are struggling with substances seek a better life for themselves. I have witnessed women change their lives around and become such strong mothers; these are the mothers that have experienced horrible lifestyles, abuse, and have been in the foster system themselves. I have seen how extremely important it is that they find their purpose and fulfillment in recovery. I help my patients get back to their best health by giving them proper care without any judgement.”

Raj Johal, RN
 
“As a Complex Care Neonatal ICU Respiratory Therapist, my main role is to provide education for parents and caregivers with babies going home on respiratory support. I love being a part of the interdisciplinary team, and it is very rewarding to help the most fragile babies in NICU survive and see them grow and thrive.”

Jenny Huang, Respiratory Therapist
