Sue Abuleal

I hold a Master of Arts in Leadership, Health Specialization from Royal Roads University and a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from the University of Victoria. I have worked in the Nursing Department in the School of Health and Human Services since 2005. During this time, I have taught a variety of theory and clinical nursing courses within the three years of the Nursing program but primarily teach second year.

Previously, I worked as a registered nurse in various acute medical and surgical units within Island Health. I hold a flexible student-centred approach and continually strive to assist nursing students to develop their critical thinking and decision making skills while enhancing their empowerment and motivation.

I value bedside nursing and feel honoured to be invited with my students to take part in patients’ healing journeys. My 18 years of bedside nursing experience enriches this passion as I share my experiential knowledge with nursing students, assisting them in applying their learned knowledge to various clinical situations in promoting patients’ emotional and physical well-being.

I welcome you to the Nursing program at Camosun! I feel privileged to take part in your learning, by delivering excellent nursing care that promotes safe and effective patient care.
