For many patients at Shore Medical Center, one of the first people they meet is Nyiesha C.
As a registrar in Shore’s Outpatient and Pre-Admission Testing area, she helps patients coming in for bloodwork, imaging, EKGs, pre-surgical testing, and more.
Some patients arrive unsure of where to go, overwhelmed by paperwork, or stressed because a testing order hasn’t arrived. For Nyiesha, helping ease that stress is one of the most meaningful parts of her job - and it comes from an experience she had at Shore as a patient herself.
“When I had my second child at Shore two years ago, I loved how they really cared about me,” she said. “Not just me and my baby, but my son’s father - our whole family.”
That experience stayed with her.
After having her son, Nyiesha enrolled in phlebotomy school and sought a healthcare role to gain experience, since she'd worked primarily in retail and customer service. Instead, she discovered a passion for outpatient registration and for the relationships she builds with patients every day.
“If someone is unsure how to get to testing, I’ll walk them where they need to go,” she said. “If paperwork is overwhelming, I help with it. If they need something from a doctor’s office, I’ll call for them. I try to take some of the burden off patients so they can focus on themselves.”
“I always try to treat people the way Shore treated me,” she said.
At Shore, every role has the power to shape a patient’s experience, and caregivers like Nyiesha help make that experience feel personal from the very first interaction.
