Scarborough nurses show their skills at expo

THE public got the chance to see nurses through a different lens at an expo on Thursday at the Scarborough General Hospital's courtyard.

The event, which was planned and executed by TRHA's secondary care nurses, was designed to highlight the talents, skills and extra-curricular entrepreneurial activities of Scarborough nurses.

These nurses are not only responsible for patient care, but have a variety of skills, talents and businesses including makeup, printing, leathercraft, baked goods, catering, soaps and incenses, jewellery, preserves, wines, clothing – including scrubs, healthcare work wear, women's plus size casual and work wear, afro-themed casual wear and designs.

The expo was enjoyed by staff at the hospital and clients waiting on clinics.
