Brief Objectives:

Nursing School during COVID Pandemic has its challenges. Student, faculty, and employer stress and burn-out have been at an all-time high. It is important that we pause to understand the impact of COVID on the educational experience and student wellbeing.

A panel of three nursing students will speak to their lived experiences of:

  1. Nursing school over the last two years
  2. What made them languish?
  3. What lead them to thrive in these COVID times?

Dr. McMillan will also participate in the panel and speak to some of her recent findings on new graduate nurse transition into practice during the Covid-19 pandemic in Ontario.

Fostering wellness in trying times as a means to “Beat burnout” will be central to this presentation.

Where: Saturday Feb 26/2022 from 12 pm to 2pm. Eastern Time.

Where: By Zoom
