In this episode, we sit down to talk with Cheryl Beemer, a nurse with over 30 years' experience. She has worked in the cardiac cath lab and held positions with the College of Nurses of Ontario, Registered Nurses Association of Ontario as well as the Ontario Nurses Association.  We discuss a difficult time in her life when she dealt with multiple deaths in the family, her husband was ill, and how her sick time off was handled by nursing leadership.
