About Your Facilitator

Hi, I'm Irah, a Canadian RN with over 19 years of experience across emergency forensic nursing, public health, rehabilitation, long-term care, and nursing education. I've worked with organizations including Vancouver Coastal Health and Fraser Health and previously taught nursing with a focus on clinical judgment, leadership, and professional practice.

Through my work with internationally educated nurses, I saw that the challenge wasn't nursing knowledge. It was learning how to think, prioritize, communicate, and make decisions like a Canadian nurse. I also saw how many IENs were ending up in longer, more costly re-entry programs when the shorter bridging pathway was within reach with the right preparation.

That's why I created Nursing Collective: to give IENs quality education that is affordable and accessible, so more nurses can walk into their assessments and jobs prepared.
