00:00:04,990 --> 00:00:09,410
sometimes what you're looking for is at

2
00:00:07,220 --> 00:00:11,300
the end of the road your journey here

3
00:00:09,410 --> 00:00:12,860

9
00:00:22,999 --> 00:00:27,409
stay could it be breathing in that clean

10
00:00:25,369 --> 00:00:29,659
northern air or is it the glorious

also a quick 40 minutes lice and

22
00:00:52,640 --> 00:01:00,050
Winnipeg International Airport Red Lake

23
00:00:58,190 --> 00:01:01,280
it's it's such a small town you really

24
00:01:00,050 --> 00:01:03,140
feel like you're a part of the community

25
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,909
and that your neighbors are looking out

26
00:01:03,140 --> 00:01:06,740
for you to be able to build that sense

27
00:01:04,909 --> 00:01:09,070
of community and family and in the small

28
00:01:06,740 --> 00:01:11,740

the community is so close the economy is

31
00:01:14,530 --> 00:01:21,729
booming there's work for everybody here

32
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:23,500
I chose to work at the ridley hospital

33
00:01:21,729 --> 00:01:25,899
because you get to see a little bit of

34
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:28,180
everything I knew that I wanted to

35
00:01:25,899 --> 00:01:29,979
practice in a rural study because I

36
00:01:28,180 --> 00:01:33,310
wanted xscope of practice and I wanted

37
00:01:29,979 --> 00:01:36,250
that kind of challenge I wanted to

38
00:01:33,310 --> 00:01:38,409
return back to be new shield area

39
00:01:36,250 --> 00:01:40,330
because I grew up here and I love the

40
00:01:38,409 --> 00:01:43,360
environment I basically wanted a

41
00:01:40,330 --> 00:01:45,399
northern experience it was a change of

42
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:47,619
my career I wanted to take on the steel

43
00:01:45,399 --> 00:01:49,810
role and this is an opportunity for me I

44
00:01:47,619 --> 00:01:52,090
working large Hospital a medium-sized

45
00:01:49,810 --> 00:01:54,729
and small and I realized that this is my

46
00:01:52,090 --> 00:01:56,950
future it just so happened that my

47
00:01:54,729 --> 00:01:59,170
husband was also a family physician had

48
00:01:56,950 --> 00:02:01,630
been up in the community of Red Lake

49
00:01:59,170 --> 00:02:03,399
several years ago and he had loved it so

50
00:02:01,630 --> 00:02:08,920
I decided to sign up some work in Red

51
00:02:03,399 --> 00:02:11,049
Lake the scope of medicine here is

52
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:14,110
phenomenal and this is exactly what we

53
00:02:11,049 --> 00:02:15,940
were trained for us we work anywhere on

54
00:02:14,110 --> 00:02:19,030
the acute floor with long-term care

55
00:02:15,940 --> 00:02:21,400
patients two small children to emergency

56
00:02:19,030 --> 00:02:23,370
room traumas and whoever comes in the

57
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,480
door retreat so it's very exciting and

58
00:02:23,370 --> 00:02:28,030
challenging every day is a new

59
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:30,130
experience I do my regular family

60
00:02:28,030 --> 00:02:32,079
medicine clinic but i also have

61
00:02:30,130 --> 00:02:34,299
responsibilities here at the hospital so

62
00:02:32,079 --> 00:02:37,090
for instance i do call ships I see

63
00:02:34,299 --> 00:02:39,670
patients in the emergency room I manage

64
00:02:37,090 --> 00:02:42,700
hospital inpatients I manage obstetric

65
00:02:39,670 --> 00:02:45,160
okay TSA's delivered babies and we also

66
00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:47,590
service the long-term care facility

67
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:50,530
there's great continuity of care see

68
00:02:47,590 --> 00:02:53,440
someone in the emergency department and

69
00:02:50,530 --> 00:02:55,660
then follow up in the clinic or you see

70
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:57,310
them as follow-up care you see the map

71
00:02:55,660 --> 00:02:58,810
to come back from the specialist and so

72
00:02:57,310 --> 00:03:00,609
you really get a great sense of what's

73
00:02:58,810 --> 00:03:02,980
going on and I think it makes her

74
00:03:00,609 --> 00:03:05,920
interesting medicine as well as better

75
00:03:02,980 --> 00:03:07,989
patient care working in a small Hospital

76
00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:09,730
you get to develop one on one with their

77
00:03:07,989 --> 00:03:11,980
patients a lot easier than you would in

78
00:03:09,730 --> 00:03:13,810
a bigger Hospital and you actually build

79
00:03:11,980 --> 00:03:16,989
a relationship with not only the

80
00:03:13,810 --> 00:03:18,370
patients but also your coworkers my

81
00:03:16,989 --> 00:03:18,910
experience at the Red Lake hospital has

82
00:03:18,370 --> 00:03:20,380
been

83
00:03:18,910 --> 00:03:26,650
just a little bit of everything it's

84
00:03:20,380 --> 00:03:29,860
been very fun and very challenging we

85
00:03:26,650 --> 00:03:32,050
focus in a lot on work-life balance so

86
00:03:29,860 --> 00:03:35,110
the quality of life is important myself

87
00:03:32,050 --> 00:03:36,900
personally I'm an outdoor enthusiast so

88
00:03:35,110 --> 00:03:39,700
that is where I feel the most

89
00:03:36,900 --> 00:03:41,650
comfortable and the wilderness is right

90
00:03:39,700 --> 00:03:44,290
in your backyard you can walk outside

91
00:03:41,650 --> 00:03:46,690
and go so mobiling or ice fishing and go

92
00:03:44,290 --> 00:03:48,340
for a hike renew any day after work or

93
00:03:46,690 --> 00:03:49,840
on the weekend whereas in the largest

94
00:03:48,340 --> 00:03:51,970
Center you'd have to drive an hour or

95
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:54,190
two to get to those kind of activities I

96
00:03:51,970 --> 00:03:55,960
like canoeing and kayaking if you love

97
00:03:54,190 --> 00:03:58,120
that there's no better place I can

98
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:00,460
paddle into woodland caribou park right

99
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:03,010
from my doc work is important it's

100
00:04:00,460 --> 00:04:08,590
rewarding but work-life balance is just

101
00:04:03,010 --> 00:04:10,480
as important I don't know exactly what

102
00:04:08,590 --> 00:04:12,010
drives people here but they're looking

103
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,590
for something and it must be the

104
00:04:12,010 --> 00:04:17,560
adventure really I think working at Red

105
00:04:14,590 --> 00:04:19,269
Lake Hospital it would be ideal for

106
00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:20,859
someone who is looking for a little bit

107
00:04:19,269 --> 00:04:23,950
more adventure and looking for some

108
00:04:20,859 --> 00:04:25,240
challenge in their practice I would
