NS Healthcare Hero: Jazmyn Mckinnon

“This lovely lady works with me at VON Halifax as an LPN. She has worked tirelessly through the pandemic offering the best care possible to her clients. At the beginning of the first wave she volunteered to be redeployed to help Northwood during their outbreak!

She has spent months making sure that each and every person she saw was treated in a way she would treat her own family. While working in the community brings the unease of not knowing and not always being able to prepare for what you’re going to walk into, this lady faces every challenge head on and with a unique view of how to handle the obstacles! On top of the amazing care she gives on a daily basis she spent the last few months of this pandemic working while pregnant! Jazmyn is an amazing image of what a nurse should be!”
