Short videos celebrating careers in Mental Health and Addictions nursing:
In the videos, five nurses talk about what attracted them to the work they do and how every day is different and rewarding.
- Introduction to all five nurses:
- Dawn from Addictions Services
- Beverley, who (at the time) worked for the Mental Health Court, and now works in Addictions Services
- Todd, who studied to become a nurse practitioner while working at the East Coast Forensic Hospital
- Rachel from the IWK who has worked in several settings as a nurse practitioner
- Emma, a new graduate, who is passionate about pursuing a career in Mental Health and Addictions
We were fortunate to have had the expertise and wisdom of Dr. Sheri Price, creator of the "Be a nurse" campaign (www.beanurse.ca). Members of the Healthy Minds Cooperative (www.healthyminds.ca) and family acted as extras to help us tell the stories of our five nurses.
