Joy Efe Okafor

Midwife and nurse, Kano

  • 🇳🇬 Kano, Kano, Nigeria
  • Heritage Community Hospital
  • Since 1987
  • English
I've been a nurse for 39 years, most of them in community health at Heritage Community Hospital in Kano. Night shifts taught me patience, and patients taught me everything else. The thing I'm proudest of is that families usually remember my name. I garden badly but happily. It has been a good run and I'm grateful for all of it.

More about Joy

I still get cards from families years later. They're pinned to my fridge.
What gifts mean to Joy: I'd put gifts toward a training course in palliative care.
