Rebecca McElroy received her BSc in Life Sciences from Queen’s University and is now in her final year of the accelerated BScN program at the University of Toronto. Her decision to pursue a career in nursing largely came from her experiences with a health education NGO, where she worked in a variety of community settings to explore aspects of sexual and mental health with youth of various cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. Rebecca hopes eventually to work with Indigenous populations in remote areas of Canada where there is an enhanced need for access to culturally safe health care services and health care professionals.
