For this episode I interview Kehinde and Fumi, and PJ and Coretta at The Village of Riverside Glen. Kehinde is a nurse, Fumi is a PSW/Med Cert, PJ is a Recreation Team member, and Coretta is a PSW. They share with me their respective journeys from their home countries of Nigeria and Kenya, acclimating to the dramatically different weather while settling in with their families, as well as navigating the challenge of getting jobs and education here, as many of their incredible skills and accreditations from their home countries aren’t recognized here in Canada. They also share some of their goals for the future, and their favourite parts of working at Riverside Glen. Thank you to Kehinde, Fumi, PJ and Coretta for sharing your stories!
