Meet Trisha, one of our helpful and hardworking Administrators.

How long have you been with Winterberry?

I have been with Winterberry for about 3 and half months and it has been amazing. The staff here are fantastic and very welcoming.  

Tell us about your work at Winterberry. What’s your role?

I am the Office Assistant at Winterberry Family Medicine. I am responsible for ordering and receiving our supplies in both of our locations as well as our newly acquired physio clinic. It’s my job to make sure that the staff has all the necessary supplies they need so that we can provide the best possible service. I have also been helping our physio and admin team whenever they need extra coverage. I keep our offices tidy and organized and help with troubleshooting tech issues with the help of our IT team. I just try to help the team the best that I can, whenever I can.  

What made you want to work in administration? 

I got into administration in a very unconventional way and did not know much about the profession. I soon realized that it’s a job that I genuinely enjoy that suits my personality and can utilize my skills. I love a job where I can help people in any way possible.  

What made you want to be part of the Winterberry team compared to other clinics? 

When I was going through my application with Winterberry and researching about the clinic, I was really interested and fascinated by their progressive approach to health care! I love that they were embracing how healthcare has changed so much from what was considered traditional.

Is there an average day in the Administration department at Winterberry?

To be completely honest, no! I think that’s what is interesting about working in administration, you just never know what could happen in your day. There is always something new and something different. I like it because it keeps me on my toes. 

What is your favourite part of your job? 

Just to piggyback on my previous answer. I really appreciate the spontaneity of my job. Some days I am needed at reception admin or I’m doing behind the scenes administrative work. Other days I am building a chair or running to a store to grab supplies. It’s really fun. 

When you’re not at Winterberry, what will we find you doing?

When I’m not working, you’ll find me outdoors, out on a hike with my dog, friends, and family, or playing whatever sport I’m currently interested in.
