Former KO Director of Health Orpah McKenzie is in charge of Aboriginal Affairs at the Northern Ontario Medical School. She is encouraging more NAN students to prepare for careers in medicine and other health care careers.
She is looking for First Nations to host medical students for four-week placements during their first year starting in the winter semester of 2006. The purpose of these visits is to familarize medical students with the health realities of day-to-day life for community members on reserve. "Fort Severn, Deer Lake, North Spirit Lake, Keewaywin and Poplar Hill would be ideal sites for these placements," said Orpah... For more information, call her at 1-807-766-7311...
