"I encourage anyone who is considering the Boost program to do it. Boost gave me an opportunity nobody else had and allowed my application to stand out when applying to jobs. Also, you'll work with wonderful people, who will provide you with the tools to be successful."

“I am responsible for answering phones and directing the calls to wherever they need to go, and I am responsible for ordering supplies. We have a stock room and we check it every so often to make sure we have everything we need. We communicate a lot with other floors. We just make sure that everyone is good and everyone has what they need. I’m a people pleaser. I love it when I do something and it’s done right and everyone’s happy. I just like a happy environment and I like working with people who are happy too.”

“I have had to use this hospital for all three of my kids and I know how much care and dedication the staff has for wanting children to get better. Any job I’ve had – it’s always been about helping someone else. That’s what we are supposed to do in life. Being here puts your whole life into perspective – really makes you step back for a minute and reflect. It’s all about the kids here.”

“I’ve been here going on 6 years. I started off in registration and knew I wanted to pursue a career as a nurse. So, I’m back in school, which means I don’t have a life right now. And I have three kids, all girls ages 13, 10 and 4. I’m pretty busy, but I like it here. I feel like the hospital takes care of its employees – that they really appreciate us.”
