Connecting with CAIN members

The Canadian Association for International Nursing held its first educational session in Vancouver in November with the theme, “Global Health Practice: Dreaming It, Thinking It Through and Doing It.” Alex Berland described some of the lessons learned from our project concluding, “Sometimes, you have to take a leap into the unknown.” All the presentations will be posted at http://www.cainursing.ca/ where you can also find out how to join CAIN.

Thanks to our friends at Mid-Main Community Health Centre


In early November 2009 Alex Berland and John Richards attended the Board of Directors’ meeting at Mid-Main Community Health Centre, to report on progress with the College of Nursing. As the project sponsor, MMCHC has been a key supporter from the outset. Directors Deirdre Evans, John Richards and Katia Wong have all visited and taught at IUBAT. You can read more about the other activities of this progressive primary health care clinic at www.midmaincommunityhealth.net.
