Kristyna Sorensen

Event Nursing Consultant

Kristyna is a Registered Nurse with a speciality in Emergency Nursing. She is a Veteran of event medicine getting her start in 2012 as a naïve nursing student and working her way up to being part of the leadership team on most of the major planned events throughout the year. Kristyna works full time at Vancouver General Hospital in the Emergency Department and part time at the Vancouver jail as a Corrections Nurse. Event nursing is her favourite type of work but Trauma at VGH runs a close second. 

Kristyna can generally be found in the Main Medical tent as a Charge or Triage Nurse. She loves to lead the team but isn’t afraid to get her hands dirty if the situation calls for it. She loves to teach and tell stories based on experience. The best part of event nursing is the people you meet, the connections you make and the friendships you foster.
