My name is Lara Sampson, I have been an LPN for almost 20 years. I have been married for 28 years and have 5 adult children. I am a strong advocate for safer work environments and have acted as a steward, as well as been a part of the JOHS committee for many years.
As a union steward and Nurse I have learned to assist with conflict management and have the ability to step outside of my own feelings to create better insight into the problem while simultaneously valuing team input.
My experience has allowed me to identify, communicate and problem solve some of the grave safety issues we are experiencing with ever-with ever-increasing frequency. Please consider voting for me as your OH&S representative for the lower mainland region.
