Jennifer White

I have been in health care my whole life working as care aid and now nursing for the last 8 years! I am passionate about addictions and mental health related to personal and professional experiences. I love the connections I make along the way and being able to support people through challenging times. I am empathetic, gentle, kind and have great communication skills and great time management, I can learn fast and am passionate about whatever work I get involved in.

I worked approx 10 years in long term care specializing in dementia and the last five years specializing in mental health and addictions! I currently work in a medical detox full time and in a treatment center! I have a number of skills such as assessments, communication, med administration, sublocade injections and naloxone training, working closely with physicians and the pharmacy and more!
