Tour this former nursing station and step back in time to the world of the colony nurse. Discover the life of Gertrude Duchemin who, for over 40 years, served as nurse, midwife and, on occasion, veterinarian. You’ll learn more about how these front-line workers lived and worked and how the nursing stations operated. This site is one-of-a-kind in Québec, with its multimedia environment, furnishings, archival documents and various medical instruments.
