Yaw (hello), my name is Christine Mack (Friesen).
I am from the Nuxalk Nation in Bella Coola. BC (the heart of the Great Bear Rainforest). I am a mother to five beautiful children (ages 19, 18, 17, 17 and 10). I am a Licensed Practical Nurse. I began my career in health care in 2002. I worked as a Resident Care Aide and then furthered my education to become a Licensed Practical Nurse in 2008. I have worked primarily in long-term care caring for the elderly in Kamloops. I loved working as a long-term care nurse. It was my passion and this came naturally to me.
I changed direction when two of my son’s got diagnosed with schizophrenia. I became a mental health advocate and made the decision to further my education once again. I am currently studying to become a Registered Psychiatric Nurse. I am in semester four of eight. I will be completed my studies in December 2024.
I am honored to start my new journey as T’itqlet’s newest Home Care nurse. I am excited and I am looking forward to helping out. I can be reached at 250-256-4118
