Nicole Fournier, a health care assistant at Three Links Manor in Kelowna.

Name: Nicole Fournier (she/her/hers)
Job Title: Health care assistant
Years of Service: 11
Worksite: Three Links Manor
Community: Kelowna
Ancestral Territory: Syilx
Favourite Quote / Advice to live by: Live, laugh, love.

Since Nicole Fournier was a young girl, she always wanted to be a nurse. She was born and raised on the coast, and has been in Kelowna for over 20 years.

She became a health care assistant (HCA) with the plan of getting her start in nursing and eventually become a wound care nurse. However, Nicole found her work as a HCA enjoyable. 

In fact, when asked her proudest moment from her 11-years-and-counting career with Interior Health, she answered “becoming a care aide.”
