Ashley is passionate about the well-being of her patients and fellow employees and her attitude and enthusiasm are infectious. « The best part of my job is getting up in the morning and going to the nursing home to do rounds with the physician, » says Ashley, who spends time both at long-term care facilities and at the pharmacy. Ashley is always ready to help co-workers with health-related questions. At a recent event at the Tahoe office in support of World Diabetes Day, an employee approached Ashley with concerns. Ashley helped him complete a CANRisk Questionnaire to identify his risk of diabetes and when the score indicated his risk was high, Ashley tested his blood sugar, which also was high. « I didn’t want to scare him, but I gave him some test strips to take home and I encouraged him to follow up with his family physician, » says Ashley. Being able to help co-workers and patients is very rewarding, says Ashley. « We are their partners in terms of health care. »
