Hello. My name is Jérôme Savard, a licensed practical nurse at the CIUSSS Saguenay Lac-Saint-Jean, Lac-Saint-Jean facility since 2009. I have been involved in the union, on my local team, since 2012. I have been on several committees, like the joint OHS Committee, HRDP Committee and am currently on the local negotiating committee. I was also responsible for mobilization and info-support during the provincial negotiations. I have held the positions of licensed practical nurse vice-president, first vice-president and interim president until the merger of certifications. I am now the licensed practical nurse representative in my local unit. Known for my ability to mobilize people, I am running for a position on the FIQ Education-Animation Committee. For me, animation is second nature. Having studied in communication, I love to entertain and inform people. On the education side, I have attended the majority of the training given by the FIQ. I also attended the FIQ summer school which enabled me to evaluate and properly identify the needs of this training. I will be available for you, with the goal of improving the training given by our organization. I will also be there to help you to get through those long days at a Federal Council or Convention.

Looking forward to meeting you.

Jérôme Savard
