Christine is a grandmother, a mother of 3, a twin a sister, an aunt, and a niece but she ultimately misses being a granddaughter which stemmed her interest working in seniors care.

“I moved to Victoria to be closer to my grandparents,” shares Clark, “My twin and I used to spend Sundays with them but they moved to Victoria from Winnipeg when we were 10. We were lucky as we would get to come and spend entire summers here, I decided to move to Victoria when I was 21 as I knew my Grandparents wouldn’t be here for ever.”

Christine is well respected within her team and her clients find her calm and compassionate demeanor to be comforting. She regularly demonstrates her genuine care and generosity for seniors, for instance, she had once brought in personal stuffed animals to comfort elders. Another example that illustrates her selflessness, would be when she cancelled her personal plans to be present for her clients in need.

“I was raise to be kind and thoughtful and treat other the way I’d like to be treated.” Says Clark. “I love what I do and I guess it shows cause here we are.”

BCCPA commends Christine for her strong belief in her clientele’s capability and being a strong advocate for maintaining independence for them.
