Nursing is a second career for Toby Bowers; previous non-profit work showed him the importance of social justice and the determinants of health. He currently works as an RPN at Toronto General Hospital in the Multi-Organ Transplant unit and studies for his BScN at Nipissing University. Nursing is a place where he builds on his past work while it also opens new avenues to fight for better health outcomes for all people. When he is not at work, he can be found enjoying local parks with his family and friends.
