United Nurses of Alberta celebrates National Indigenous History Month in June by honouring the contributions made by First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples to our union, the nursing profession, our province and Canada.

UNA is proud to represent many nurses of Indigenous heritage, including those employed by the Blood Tribe Department of Health in Stand Off, near Cardston, and by Aakom Kiyii Health Services of the Piikani Nation at Brocket.

We encourage UNA members to learn more about the unique experiences, diverse cultures and outstanding contributions of Indigenous peoples this month and throughout the year.

This annual month-long recognition dates back to 2009, when the House of Commons designated June as National Aboriginal History Month. The name was changed to National Indigenous History Month in 2017. The observance provides an opportunity for all Canadians to learn more about Indigenous people and show their respect for their vast contribution to Canada.

RN and NP Nursing Continuing Education Grant funding closes in just one week. This is your final opportunity to apply for support toward eligible continuing education courses before the current intake period ends.

These grants are designed to help registered nurses and nurse practitioners continue building their skills, advance their practice, and stay current in an evolving healthcare environment.

We encourage all eligible applicants not to miss this deadline. Applications close in one week June 1.
