HomeCOVID-19A look back – and look forward – with Nancy Guebert

A look back – and look forward – with Nancy Guebert

It’s been approximately 20 months since we had our first confirmed case of COVID-19 in Alberta.

Some days, it feels like time has passed in the blink of an eye. Then there are those days when we feel every challenge, big or small, and the collective effort it’s taken all of us to get through this pandemic.

But every step of the way, you have persevered and shown remarkable dedication. Some of you have even come back from retirement to lend a hand.

One of those people is Nancy Guebert, who has held numerous leadership roles in her healthcare career.  When I called Nancy in the spring of 2020 to see if she was interested in un-retiring to join the Emergency Co-ordination Centre as director, she didn’t hesitate.

As Nancy is re-retiring this week. I thought this was a good opportunity to sit down with her for a bit of a look back, and also talk about what lies ahead.
