She graduated from Saint Clare’s Mercy nursing school, Saint John’s, Newfoundland in 1965 and spent forty years working as a registered nurse in Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island. Her career began in small outport hospitals in Newfoundland. After moving to Prince Edward Island, she went on to work at Kings County Memorial Hospital, Charlottetown Hospital, Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Kidney Dialysis, and Home Care and Support.  The greatest joys in her nursing career were the colleagues she met that went on to be her lifelong friends and the patients she took care of in her calm, caring, and professional manner.
