A new executive has been elected to spearhead the efforts of the Dominica Nurses Association (DNA).
During a special general meeting of the DNA held on Friday, December 27th, 2019, Mignon Rolle Shillingford was elected unopposed to serve as the president.
Yolanda Rodney was voted First Vice President, with Debra Phillip as Second Vice President.
Former President Rosie Felix will now serve in the capacity of Secretary.
Dyan Cornelius, who served as Secretary on the previous administration, is the new Treasurer. Magdalene Moses will provide services as Assistant Secretary-Treasurer, while the position of Public Relations Officer will be held by Juliana Darroux.
The new executive will serve for a term of two years.
I hope she will be looking in all aspects not money alone like leaving patient in there mess for 14 hours no one cleaning them what a shame any way congrats
Congrats to the new executive and a special shout out to Nurse Moses. Good stuff!
Unopposed? So what about our male nurses. Is it still taboo to be a male nurse in Dominica? Nonetheless, congratulations to the new president.
You should be happy and proud to see Dominican women stepping into leadership roles. For too long women remained in the background and watched men make a complete harsh of everything. I would like to see a woman elected as the next Prime minister. Are there any women who feel confident enough to challenge Lennox Linton to take over the mantle of the UWP? I would certainly give my vote to any party that is willing to allow a woman leader to contest the next election due in five years time.
By the way, I’m a man, husband and father.
Have you forgotten about our own Iron Lady, Eugenia Charles?
She may not have been everyone’s cup of tea politically but she was darn well respected, worldwide. The only time we ever had a positive balance of payment was under her reign. Dominican women have always been strong holding the family together while we men playing cock and foolishness. Skerrit knows that, he was leader of the young freedomites under Ma Charles.
Congrats DNA deserve good representation with that president. Remove the politics .in the executive and unite the nurses together. I would like you all to let we nurses enjoy our career
It was about time for this change. The former President spent too much of her time playing politics for the UWP, and not looking out for the welfare of the nurses.
Leave it alone man she entitled to her own political view just like the other members of the association. If only Skerrit could understand opposition is healthy for democracy.
Was time to get rid of Rosie as the president of the DNA.!
