I’ve also applied to the Lakehead MPH program! Nursing specialization with nurse practitioner electives. My application is under review still. I’m anxiously awaiting news haha. I haven’t been able to find too much about this stream online. I love the idea of the MPH NP combo and there aren’t too many other programs where you can do both in Canada (that I’ve seen). Good luck to both of you! TheTachyNurse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not do the NP stream, it retrospect I should have applied for both MPH NP and MPH Nursing but I was so nervous since the majority of my nursing career has been in PH and not acute care. What is your CV like for nursing? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is your CV like for nursing? ? Thank you! I’m currently working in a Public Health Nurse role that focuses on Indigenous Communities in Northern Ontario. I’ve only been in this role for about a year and previously did remote nursing and acute care. I’m still casual in a rural hospital so I get a nice mix of skills. I did an accelerated BScN (2 years) and had a previous degree (BSc bio and psyc) before that, so I’m not sure how they’ll calculate my GPA. I did a lot of stats and research work in my previous degree, so I’m hoping that helps my application. How about you? ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a BSc in Kinesiology and an accelerated BScN. I've been in PH a little over 2 years now, I previously dabbled in ortho-trauma but PH is my passion. No research background but lots of community volunteer experience, doing outreach within the community, mental health and sexual health. I also was a supervisor at one of the mass immunization clinics for COVID-19 within the greater Toronto area which was a cool experience. Because I have been out of acute care for almost 3 years it has discouraged me from seeking an NP as I know they want you to still have somewhat of a knowledge base. Does your lakehead application say under review? Mine changed a couple weeks back to under review and my UofA one just changed today to under review....keeping my fingers crossed!

Wow that’s awesome, you sound like a strong candidate! It’s so great to hear that you’ve found your passion in public health! If you ever decide to do your NP afterwards, you could always do a post-masters program ? there’s been more NPs working in a public health scope and that what I’m hoping to do. I have to get in first though haha. Yes mine also says “under department review” TheTachyNurse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StrawberriesNcream98 Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 I applied to Waterloo and my application still says there’s no decision yet from the department. Hopefully we’ll get responses soon cause it’s already March, but I think most offers are sent out in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
