Last week, SWITCH participated at a health fair at King George School, hosted by SCBScN student nurses!🩹

The topic of our booth was "Beating the Heat", featuring advice and tips on staying healthy and safe during the hot summer months! We had many visitors from students and staff from the school, as well as other members of the community!☀

Huge thank you to student nurse Taylor for inviting us to the event, student volunteer and Board director Prabhpreet for running the booth, and other student volunteers on making our poster board!😁

Thank you to the Saskatchewan Blue Cross for selecting SWITCH as one of their grant recipients for their "80 Years, 80 Grants" initiative!

SWITCH Programming Coordinator Mikka and Board Chair Patrick attended the Saskatchewan Blue Cross 80th Anniversary Celebration on May 27th in Saskatoon. 80 years is a tremendous achievement, and we thank the Saskatchewan Blue Cross for awarding SWITCH a grant and for their contributions to health services and access in our province.

Congratulations and thanks again to the Saskatchewan Blue Cross!

Join SWITCH at our booth at the King George School put on by 4th year nursing students!
