It’s National Nursing Week and Thunder Bay Regional Health Sciences Centre (TBRHSC) is highlighting a few of our nurses and their achievements. Meet Grace Fleming, a nursing student at Oshki-Wenjack.

Grace Fleming has worked as a ward clerk at Red Lake Hospital since 2014. Grace knew early in her employment that she wanted to become a nurse, but the opportunities to advance her career in Red Lake were limited. In 2022, she discovered a nursing program at Oshki-Wenjack. “Oshki has allowed me the ability to do most of the program from my hometown,” says Grace. “I have enjoyed the small class sizes, and the one-on-one learning. I am looking forward to starting my career in my hometown of Red Lake.”
