This collaborative and mentorship-focused culture has empowered Caitlyn to thrive and build confidence in her new role.
Beyond Skills, Building Trust:
Caitlyn’s story goes beyond acquiring technical skills. Her presence at KCH reflects Artic’s understanding of the critical role played by trainee engineers in healthcare facilities. From her office days she acquired the knowledge of needing to deliver the highest standard of service. Her higher work ethic and dedication now contribute to maintaining comfortable, safe and healthy environments for patients and staff, reflecting a shared commitment to patient well-being.
“Excited for the Future”:
