Meet This Month's Employee Spotlight

Meet SoyIe
Meet Soyie– Care Manager at SWCAA

Care Managers must have strong time management skills.  They must be well versed in conflict resolution.  They must demonstrate compassion, confidence, kindness, responsibility, and efficiency.  They are problem solvers and advocates.  Sometimes, they are even magicians donning a cape and magic wand.  Soyie exudes all of that and more.  She has a quiet (unless you know her) confidence about her that not only makes her an excellent Care Manager, but an exceptional person. Even when dealing with the most difficult times, she maintains the utmost professionalism and gives 100%.  Soyie has an affinity for the color green and enjoys a good 90’s R&B song.  SWCAA and Team 4 are lucky to have her as are the clients and their families.  Thank you Soyie for all that you do!
