PMH attends career day at Ebb and Flow First Nation

Prairie Mountain Health (PMH) Addiction Services was on hand at the Ebb and Flow First Nation Career Day on April 30 and took the opportunity to display information on the many health care career opportunities within the health region and provide background on addiction services in general. The one-day event for high school and adult education students featured over 30 booths, and many presenters delivered inspiring messages and guidance to the students in attendance.

One of the many highlights included two young ladies who had the opportunity to share their science fair projects, which won awards at the University of Manitoba science fair. They will try to do the same at an upcoming national science fair. As a bonus, the lead singer from the Manitoba country music band Doc Walker even attended the event, where he gave an impactful speech, performed some songs and then welcomed attendees to get autographs/pictures and learn how to get into the music industry!

PMH Addictions Community Addictions Worker Sesley Sloboda was very pleased with the time spent at the career day.

“We had a great turnout at our booth, with many students interested in learning about our services and exploring a future career with Addiction Services. There was also some wonderful networking with other agencies that will enhance our collaborative efforts to support our clients best. I’m already looking forward to attending Ebb and Flow in the future!”
