Helping Bronx Students: A Day in the Life of Social Worker Keshia Lewis!
January 9, 2024–Welcome to “A Day in the Life”—the Frontline series that follows team members from different parts of VNS Health as they go about a typical day fulfilling our organization’s mission—to improve the health and well-being of people in the home and in the community. Today, we feature a day in the life of… psychiatric social worker Keshia Lewis. Keshia oversees the Promise Zone, a program that provides short-term crisis support for children and adolescents with emotional and/or behavioral needs in nine Bronx elementary and middle schools. She sees clients for the Bronx FRIENDS Clinic in the afternoon as well. We asked Keshia to walk us through a typical day. 5:00 a.m. My days are busy and start early. I wake up between 5:00 and 5:30 a.m. in order to get to the gym and work out, or just to use the time for some mindfulness before I start my day.
