 Hi, I’m Joanne De Rubeis, a registered nurse, educator, and founder of Caring Support Academy. With over 38 years of experience in healthcare and education, I’ve had the privilege of working with wonderful students and amazing professionals across various healthcare settings. Early in my career, I learned the importance of continually expanding my knowledge, not just in healthcare, but in areas that support overall well-being, like financial wellness and personal development. I chose to focus on financial wellness for this course because it is a key part of our overall well-being. Over the years, I’ve realized that when we feel secure in our finances, we can focus on what truly matters, caring for others. This course is designed to help you build the confidence and stability needed to thrive in both your personal and professional life. My goal is to help healthcare professionals take control of their financial well-being so they can continue making a meaningful impact in the lives of those they serve. When we feel supported in every area of our lives, we are able to truly shine in our work and our personal lives.
