Nursing in 2019: challenges and opportunities
The importance of nurses in our health care system is undeniable.
At the Montreal General Hospital, they contribute greatly to the excellent care that we provide to our community and they play a key role in various medical teams. In order to demystify certain aspects of the profession, we met with Chantal Souligny, Director of Nursing at the McGill University Health Centre (MUHC) and Ariane Bélanger, Head of the MUHC’s Comité de la relève and pediatric nurse at the Montreal Children’s Hospital.
