Although there are many qualities that come to mind, the ones that stand out the most to me are being selfless, detail-oriented, and empathetic. With my research of this role at DaVita, I understand how important it would be to my patients' care to have these qualities which I know I can possess.

For example, you mention being detail-oriented and empathetic. Can you give an example of how you express empathy in your current role? How do you show attention to detail and what result does that have on your work? A few specific examples here will take your response from good to great!
