Anyone who knows me around the boards know that i am in love with northern nursing.. I am in Northern Ontario now and have been here for 1.8 years and do enjoy my job alot. Sonce
2009 I have been trying to get a job in NWT/Yukon/Nunavut
Nunavut finally replied.. I am beyond excited and she is going to set up an interview within 2 wks.
I actually got to pick a position.. I am actually being asked what job i would be interested in..
Its all surreal amd depending on the info i receive (i have a 14 yo dtr to consider) i could be up in the artic soon.. Well since licenses take time not super soon but soon enough..
Soooo excited

Congrats! I enjoy your posts sharing your experience with northern/rural nursing. I can't wait to hear about your time in Nunavut.
Thanks. I like to give my input because not many people actually live permanently in these areas. Alot, tend to be travel nurses. It has been a dream since nursing school to get up to the territories. I really enjoy this work. Its difficult alot of the time but I love the people and I have met some interesting people.

That's great!
I've thought about it myself! I'll have to check out your posts, & I might pick your brain about Nursing in the Territories!
Congrats!!
Well i didnt get the job
However.... They said i could do my RN placement up there for school ( i am in rpn to bscn)
So that could give me an edge if i am a student first.. I refuse to give up.. I will get to the territories lol

Yep, never give up! You can do it! =D
And is there any particular reason that you want to go to the territories? Isn't it cold up there?
Northern Nursing has been my goal since nursing school.. I love being in Northern On.. Its a totally different lifestyle
I see. Good luck! If it comes from your heart, then I have faith that you'll be able to do it! =D
Best
Didn't get the job in Nunavut but now NWT has me booked for an interview on Monday.. :) fingers crossed
