Gale Rivera, LPN, Sidney Hillman Family Practice
“I get so much joy on a daily basis from communicating with the
patients; they are like my extended family. I feel close to my patients
and I feel close to my co-workers. A lot of jobs don’t have that.”
|

Jamie Vazquez-Ramos, LPN, Mt. Hope Family Practice
“In the hospital setting a patient is a number—in and out
as soon as possible. But here, we treat and know the entire family. When
patients say ‘Thank you for taking the time to take care of me,’
then we know that we did the job right.”

Esther Griffith Latouche, LPN, Administrative Nurse Manager, Phillips
Family Practice
“Working in a clinic allows me to really connect with the patients...
It’s all about taking care of patients on a whole level. I like
my nursing colleagues and the providers. I am constantly receiving positive
feedback.”

Carmen Foye, LPN, Senior Licensed Practical Nurse, Parkchester Family
Practice
The Institute offered me the opportunity to learn and grow. I can't even
put it into words--it's just been a lot of learning. At the Institute
care is much more personalized... which is the really big difference.

Enid
Rivera, LPN, Walton Family Health Center
“I grew up not far from here and I wanted to come back to help people
in this community. Within the family practice model that we have at Walton,
you see everyone from Grandma to the newborn. You’re involved with
the family and their lives, as well as providing their health care.” |
