I am a hardworking and trustworthy individual who strive for perfection

I constantly working with various stakeholders and making sure that I exceed in achieving their expectation. I work well with all my co-workers and I have learned to appreciate that people are different in their own way. It is not one size fits all you have to approach people differently after you have accessed their needs. I enjoy most working with the whole lot of different clientele as they unearth the best in me irrespective of their difficulty sometime. The most challenging aspect of my job is when a client come to me with a problem and it takes longer for the problem to be solved, as I mostly depend on sister department for solving of their problem. Other department have their standard operation procedures that can delay things sometimes.

Pros: It is very encouiraging as you get to interact with various stakeholdres from different background
Cons: Get to be labelled as lazy public servant as there is a tendency that public servant are less effective, ifficient and less economical

Less Challenging

I work full day from 06:00 to 16:00.most of the time my hours are extended due to travel from one facility to another. Monitoring and evaluating staff performance and adjustment to placement in the facilities to ensure staff retainment. Prevention of litigations and to ensure quality and efficient care. Resistance of managers to receive corrections and implement relevant policies. Always projecting to shortage of staff. What I enjoy most is the confidence that the newly appointed staff display after induction and being agents of change to redress disparities in quality of care
