Biography
Lisa Keenan-Lindsay graduated in 1983 from the University of Toronto and worked at SickKids Hospital for several years.
She then began working in all areas of obstetrics. In 2003, Lisa began teaching nursing at Seneca College and worked at the institution for 19 years.
After her retirement, she began to work at Georgian College in the new Honours Bachelor of Science – Nursing (BScN) degree program.
Nursing is the best profession that has been so rewarding. I love caring for patients and families and making the family the centre of the care I provide. The best part of teaching nursing is being able to aspire students to truly care for their patients. I also love being able to see nursing students use their caring and critical thinking to provide excellent care for patients.
