What do you love about work­ing as a remote health pro­fes­sion­al?
I love the aspect of being able to pro­vide ser­vices to regions that have few­er resources. Addi­tion­al­ly, I enjoy under­stand­ing and immers­ing myself in the cul­tures of dif­fer­ent regions. Over the past year, I have trav­elled exten­sive­ly to var­i­ous areas as a reg­is­tered nurse, expe­ri­enc­ing the unique ener­gy and cul­ture of each town. This has been incred­i­bly enrich­ing, and it’s some­thing I tru­ly love about my work.

What career goals are you build­ing towards?
I am cur­rent­ly pur­su­ing my Mas­ter of Nurse Prac­ti­tion­er. My short-term goal is to become a pas­sion­ate and capa­ble nurse prac­ti­tion­er. In the long term, I aim to serve region­al and rur­al com­mu­ni­ties, focus­ing on deliv­er­ing pal­lia­tive care ser­vices to those in need.

Why did you become a CRANAplus Mem­ber?
I was hon­oured to receive a full schol­ar­ship from the Pri­ma­ry Care Nurs­ing and Mid­wifery Schol­ar­ships. This oppor­tu­ni­ty allowed me to choose one free mem­ber­ship, and I select­ed CRANAplus because much of my work involves region­al and rur­al set­tings. Being part of CRANAplus aligns with my pas­sion for remote health care.

What do you wish every­one knew about being a remote health pro­fes­sion­al?
I believe it’s impor­tant for peo­ple to under­stand that we are here to serve the com­mu­ni­ty. More inves­ti­ga­tion and resources are need­ed to ensure we can pro­vide com­pre­hen­sive ser­vices and improve access to health care for those liv­ing in remote areas.
