Photograph By Supplied Megan Fraser, University of Victoria nursing student, started a three-month nursing practicum with the Cowichan Tribes’ Ts’ewulhtun Health Centre on January 12. The very next day, she worked her first drive-through vaccination clinic. Fraser, born and raised within the Cowichan Valley, has faced challenges before. True to form, she saw the beauty in this historical learning opportunity. “The people and staff at Cowichan Tribes were warm and welcoming,” she says of B.C.’s largest First Nation community, home to one of the first vaccine clinics of this kind. “We were sorting out the logistical pieces, purchasing supplies, organizing equipment, securing sandbags so our tents wouldn’t blow away,” she says. Cowichan Tribes installed and equipped ten such shelters to serve as vaccine- injection sites.
