Happy Holidays from CHNC
(View this message in PDF format)
Dear Community Health Nurses,
On behalf of the Board of Directors of the Community Health Nurses of Canada, I would like to extend immense, and sincere gratitude to all community health nurses from coast to coast to coast for your dedication and preservation of community health in Canada. It has been another tremendously eventful year, from discovery of the remains of Indigenous children in unmarked graves to devastating floods on both the west and east coasts of our Country. Community health nurses have organized, led, provided, researched mass immunization clinics and changed their care to all populations served. Community nurses have more than stepped up and will continue to provide leadership in Canada to advance practice, promote, protect health, and prevent illness. This holiday, we wish you a most-deserving, safe and healthy season.
Sincerely,
Donna Jepsen
CHNC President
