Meet a FMC Nurse on the UNA Local 115 OH&S Committee

Charity Locker

FMC Cardiovascular ICU
OH&S Committee

I studied at Grant MacEwan University and the University of Alberta Bachelor of Science in Nursing collaborative program, graduating in 2008. As an Undergraduate Nurse Employee, I started my career at the Royal Alexandra Hospital and soon moved into the medical float pool. I then moved over to the University of Alberta Hospital into the Cardiac OR, where I have taken the perioperative program. After being in the OR for several years, I returned to the medical float pool. I got hired with the Cardiovascular ICU in Mazankowski and have completed the critical care program. I have since entered the Cardiovascular ICU at the Foothills Medical Center.

I am currently studying through Grant MacEwan University for my occupational health in nursing. I have a strong passion for the health, safety, and well-being of nurses and other staff that help keep our healthcare system going. This passion also extends beyond nurses and spills into my friends and family.

When I am not at work, you can find me hiking, snowboarding, trail running, camping, teaching yoga and personal training for friends and enjoying the great outdoors.
