Simon Fraser

I have 21 years of nursing experience across Acute Care, Long Term Care, and Community Health, I currently work at Royal Columbian Hospital and Burnaby Home Health

As a former BCNU organizer, I worked hard to bring LPNs and RPNs into our union, because I deeply believe that unity across all designations builds power and ensures we all have a seat at the table.

If elected, I will:

Strengthen member engagement by being visible, responsive, and approachable.

Proactively identify and resolve issues before they escalate—because we need to do more than just put out fires.

Support and empower stewards by recruiting, mentoring, and creating a strong regional steward network.

Let me support you—so you can focus on supporting your patients.

I'm Meredith Lapp and I am currently the Simon Fraser Regional OH&S Rep and I’m looking forward to exploring a new role as Regional Steward Liaison. I have been an RN for 25 years and for the last 9 years as BH Site Leader. I am positive, organized, and have strong leadership and communication skills. I am a Steward and am a strong mentor as seen in my role in OH&S. I believe my experience in OH&S can only serve as an asset to this work. I know the BCNU regional executives, the site full-time stewards and steward-at-large and I believe I will work well with them to support members needs. I have a strong background of commitment to members rights. I am looking forward to recruiting and maintaining stewards that can lead our future.
