- Audray Lafortune
Communauté de pratique francophone < Back Audray Lafortune Bsc., infirmière clinicienne, stomothérapeute, PSCC(C) Communauté de pratique francophone Version française : Je suis infirmière depuis 2010, stomothérapeute depuis 2018 et certifier depuis 2019. Ma passion pour les plaies s’est développée aux soins à domicile, mais c'est suite a un remplacement en stomothérapie que j'ai appris que les soins de stomie était mon chouchou! Je travail dans un centre régional d’environ 300 lits de soins aigus et 200 lits d’hébergement, en plus d’une clinique ambulatoire de plaies et stomie. Ma pratique est seulement en plaies et en stomie. Nous avons de très bonnes relations avec une variété de spécialistes, ce qui nous permet d’avoir une clientèle très diversifiée. Par le passé, je me suis impliquée dans mon association provinciale en tant que trésorière et dans l'ISPSCC en tant que directrice régionale pour le Québec. Je suis parfaitement bilingue, mais je crois que nous devons avoir une représentation de la francophonie au sein de l'ISPSCC pour bien représenté les enjeux des francophones, souvent en minorité lorsqu'ils sont hors Québec, a travers le pays. English version: I’ve been an RN since 2010, a NSWOC since 2018 and CNA certified since 2019. For many the work of the NSWOC team is mostly unknown, but I discovered a field of great autonomy, highly competent nurses and daily challenges to make patients' lives better. My hospital is a regional hospital with 300 acute care beds and 200 long term care beds. We also have an ambulatory clinic for wound and ostomy care. We have a great working relationship with multiple specialists, which means we have a very diversified clientele. In the past, I was a member of the executive committee of my provincial association and Québec regional directeur for NSWOCC. I am perfectly bilingual, but I believe in the importance of having representation of the minority French speaking communities, especially outside Québec.
