It’s National Nursing Week and Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre (TBRHSC) is highlighting a few of our nurses and their achievements. Meet Mary Flaherty a Registered Nurse at our Hospital.

Mary Flaherty graduated from Lakehead University in June 2022 with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing. Currently, she is working as a Registered Nurse on 3B, a surgical inpatient unit at Thunder Bay Regional Health Science Centre. Mary has learned a lot during the last year and a half, and she has advanced from being a new graduate to becoming a reliable member of the team. She often serves as a unit lead, managing various situations beyond the typical caseload, which makes for an exciting and ever-changing environment. Mary says that her passion for nursing has grown through the experiences she has shared with fellow staff and patients she has worked with. She credits the amazing nurses she works with on 3B for their help and guidance, which has shaped her into the nurse she is today. Mary hopes to set an example for future generations of nurses and to be a role model of patient-centred care.
