PHEASANT RUMP FIRST NATION - The Pheasant Rump Nakota First Nation said good-bye to a very dedicated homecare nurse on March 20. After 15 years, Lorraine Johnston has decided to retire from home care.
The community enjoyed her humour, home visits, baking and treats, and loved our elders with respect and care.
Her dedication to the cherished elders was absolutely the best care they could have asked for.
She was gifted with a beautiful star blanket, which was wrapped around her with love and care, and gifted with a ribbon skirt made specially for her. Johnston was also presented with a beautiful retirement plaque engraved in Nakoda wording, honouring her service to our elders.
A giant retirement card was signed by the community, letting her know the community loved her and its time with her in the community.
She was like family, caring and providing health care to to people.
A beautiful meal was prayed over and eaten with her on this day.
