Bryan Akintunde Akindipe
Bryan is a nurse, a father, a husband, a small business owner, and a friend to all. Bryan moved to Winnipeg in 2003 from Nigeria by himself. He attended U of Manitoba and graduated with his nursing degree and has not slowed down since. After working many years as a bedside nurse, he took the Clinical Resource Nurse (CRN) position on a very busy, acute medicine ward at St. Boniface Hospital. As the CRN he was an invaluable resource to his team – providing leadership and coordinating quality patient care. During the height of the pandemic Bryan came to work every day with a positive attitude, always there to support his colleagues, our patients and their families. He truly cares so much for people. Bryan has since taken a job as Hospital Supervisor – another very demanding job where he oversees staffing of the hospital and patient movement within the hospital to ensure patients receive timely care. With his background as a bedside nurse and CRN, Bryan has a great understanding of needs throughout the hospital and remains an excellent resource to all staff. He has shown, and indeed is recognized throughout the hospital as being a kind, gracious, humble, caring and wise individual. He truly is a friend to all. To know Bryan is to love Bryan!
