"The definition of a nurse: To go above & beyond the call of duty. The first to work & the last to leave. The heart & soul of caring. Who will pass through your life for a minute and impact it for an eternity. An empowered individual whom you may meet for only a 12 hour period, but who will but who will put you & yours above theirs."

Thank you for putting so much heart into everything you do.

Made with love by Robin's Nest Team.

Lunch and cake were served to the entire CMC team. The event was organized by Waswanipi admin staff under the leadership of Eleanor Gull, Local Director.

"I wanted our nurses to know how much we value their dedication and contribution for our community to reach miyupimâtsiwin." - Eleanor Gull, Local Director
