Immigrant Experience in the Healthcare System and Senior Care with Mildred Ababio

Canada is known for welcoming immigrants from every corner of the world. The country receives around 235,000 new immigrants per year and it has been doing so since the early 1990s, according to Statistics Canada. Some of them come with a healthcare-related background and are eager to put their skills to good use from the moment they land, which is beneficial for the Canadian healthcare system.

At Caring Support we are all about supporting immigrants who want to enter the healthcare workforce in cities like London, Toronto, and Ottawa, which is why we recently sat down with Mildred Ababio, a nurse leader and a second-generation immigrant, with whom we spoke about the immigrant experience in healthcare system for both workers and patients.
