Staff Excellence Award
Mary Freeman, Director, Clinical Learning Services, Health Sciences
"I have had many people throughout my career that have influenced my personal nursing practice and my leadership philosophy and practice. The most valuable take a ways I have learned is to be intentional about what you do. Be diligent and persistent. Do it with purpose and goals. Be kind, humble and encouraging. Be as one-we are all the same no matter what level of the organization we are at-we all contribute to the whole and make a big difference."
Deborah Briere, Manager, Clinical Learning Resource Centre (CLRC), Health Sciences
"I look forward to coming to work each day because of the great team of people that I get to work with at the Clinical Learning Resource Centre, as well as the faculty and staff from the Health Sciences programs that we support. I love the planning and problem-solving that goes into each event at the CLRC, whether it’s a simulated patient encounter or manikin-based simulation, a skills lab or an OSCE. It is so gratifying to see the learners come into the Centre and hear them say that this is one of the best experiences they have had in their program."
