Hello T’it’q’et Community
My name is Tina Francis and I am from Sek’el’was.
I received my Health Care Aide Certificate in 2011 through Nicola Valley Institute of Technology. I have worked as a Health Care Aide for Interior Health at Mountain View Lodge for 7 years.
I would like to thank T’it’q’et for the opportunity to fill the positions of Casual Home Support Worker, for the community. Thus far, I am enjoying my position here at T’it’q’et; I’ve built trustful and welcoming connections with the elders of the community, which brings much joy to the position and I am appreciative of that. I look forward to getting to know the whole community of T’it’q’et because I have roots here: the late Minnie Saul is my Great Great Grandmother, who had my late Great Grandfather Hank Thevarge Sr.
When I’m not carrying out the responsibilities of a Home Support Worker, I am at home with my family. I’m a new mother to my daughter who is almost 9 months old, her name is Estelle. When I have time, my hobbies include beading in the winter months and rockhounding, hiking, and camping in the summer months.
My dream/goal is to work on building a new house for my family.
Thank you T’it’q’et Health for welcoming me to the team.
