      Hi everyone! My name is Jessica Lavis and I have been an RPN for almost 10 years. I began my career working in Telemedicine, and managed a number of clinics across Ontario. In 2018, I began working in acute care as a float Nurse, and in 2022, I transitioned away from the bedside to Infection Prevention and Control at the Brant Community Healthcare System. I am interested in pursing a leadership position in the future, and thought this course would be a great introduction to build on and learn new skills. I am looking forward to connecting with and learning from you all.

      Hello Everyone!

      My name is Mauei Caela (pronounced as Maui), and I have been an RPN for 3 years now. I work at a complex care unit specializing in trach and ventilators. I love learning and sharing what I know. I like doing some arts and crafts in my spare time, and I love playing board games with my family. You could say that I am a big introvert who works in a highly extroverted environment – healthcare. I am excited to learn more about the leadership role. I hope to be able to apply it at work and grow more as a person.

      Hello everyone. My name is Ana. I have been an RPN for 7 years working in acute care medicine. Over the years at the hospital I mentored many new grads. Earlier this year I decided I wanted to transition out of hospital and try something new. I took on a role as a clinical supervisor in community and it is definitely a lot different from acute care bedside nursing. I am hoping to gain some knowledge to help me succeed in my new role. In my very little spare time I enjoy going for walks, working out, going to live sporting events and book spontaneous get aways. I am excited to learn and grow from this course.
