The inaugural Indegenous Nurses Day was held in celebration of the birth of Edith Monture, the first Indigenous nurse in Canada and to recognize Rose Casper, the first Indigenous nurse in Western Canada. It is a chance for Indigenous nurses, students and allies to come together to recognize, promote, and protect the cultural heritage and traditional wisdom of Indigenous nursing.

Please join the Camosun and UVic School of Nursing in celebrating Indigenous Nurses Day on April 10th at 3:30PM at Na-tsa-maht Gathering Place at the Camosun Lansdowne Campus. Light snacks and refreshments provided.
