Pode dizer-se que Taylor Bardsley manifestou a sua carreira aqui na Southcoast Health. Tudo come\u00e7ou quando ela visitava sua m\u00e3e, Donna Robillard, na Borden Medical Associates (agora parte da Southcoast Health Internal Medicine), onde trabalhava como especialista em cl\u00ednica m\u00e9dica. O que ela mais gostava de fazer era criar desenhos a l\u00e1pis de cera para os funcion\u00e1rios durante as suas visitas, que os penduravam orgulhosamente na parede para ela ver. Hoje, essas mesmas paredes guardam algo novo, um diploma emoldurado que assinala a sua incr\u00edvel conquista como enfermeira. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Com uma carreira de mais de dezassete anos na Southcoast Health, a hist\u00f3ria da Taylor \u00e9 uma hist\u00f3ria de determina\u00e7\u00e3o e do poder de uma comunidade de apoio. Com apenas quinze anos e meio, come\u00e7ou a fazer voluntariado na sala de arquivo do Dr. Warren Wood em Borden, ansiosa por mergulhar no mundo dos cuidados de sa\u00fade. Aos dezasseis anos, juntou-se oficialmente \u00e0 equipa, transformando o seu trabalho de voluntariado num emprego a tempo parcial. A sua fun\u00e7\u00e3o seguinte foi a de Representante do Acesso de Doentes, dando os primeiros passos para o que viria a ser uma paix\u00e3o para toda a vida. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Em 2016, Taylor trabalhou como assistente m\u00e9dica, antes de se dedicar \u00e0 escola de enfermagem. Depois de ganhar experi\u00eancia no Charlton Memorial Hospital de 2018-2020, ela voltou para Borden como enfermeira de triagem. Mas a sua viagem n\u00e3o ficou por aqui. Alimentada pelo apoio inabal\u00e1vel de seus colegas e mentores na Southcoast Health, Taylor deu o pr\u00f3ximo salto, tornando-se uma enfermeira em 2024. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Para Taylor, a Southcoast Health tem sido mais do que um local de trabalho, tem sido uma rampa de lan\u00e7amento, uma fam\u00edlia e um local onde foi encorajada a crescer a cada passo do caminho. De muitas maneiras, ela manifestou sua carreira aqui, e hoje, sua hist\u00f3ria \u00e9 um testemunho do que \u00e9 poss\u00edvel quando a paix\u00e3o encontra a oportunidade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
