Vidhika Lall

Adrianna Polderman International Education Certification Award

My name is Vidhika. I am fun-loving, sweet, thoughtful, caring, and trustworthy person. I love nature, out in the sun in summers. I have a caring husband, Nitin and a lovely 2.9-year-old daughter, Anaya who takes up all my time these days. I joined nursing school in 2004 and graduated in 2008 in India. I am a Jane of all trades however my special interest is in neonatal nursing. I worked in general surgery, medical unit, children’s unit, neonatal surgery for almost a decade. Then decided to move to Canada with my family on permanent residency in 2019. Here, I worked as a community support worker, care aide and unit and research coordinator in St Paul’s Hospital before getting a spot in a bridging programme in 2021 to finally able to become a Registered nurse in Canada. Currently, I am in the last semester and ready to prepare for the licensing examination NCLEX-RN.

We know that helping nurses and nursing students is a team effort. More qualified nurses, more nurse-led research, more nurses and nursing students supported with mentoring and proactive mental health programs and training – that’s the outcome of your support. This leads to a stronger, more robust healthcare system for Canada.

Your support today, on Giving Tuesday, empowers us to set ambitious goals, strengthen our resources, and show that our collective generosity fuels the next generation of nurses. Let’s make this year’s Giving Tuesday our most impactful yet, proving that our collective kindness can create lasting change.
