GRATEFUL GRANDPARENTS!

In recognition of International Children’s Day and Global Day of Parents, we visited the Labor & Delivery Unit to recognize nurses Shawna Decker, MacKenzie Ellsworth, and Mariel McGuire (not pictured), as part of the Foundation’s Grateful Patient Program!

A donation was recently received from Charna Gord and her husband, proud grandparents, honouring their new grandson Levett Henry! They wrote, “I wanted to take this opportunity now by email to thank all of the doctors, nurses, allied health professionals, dietary staff, cleaners, porters – well just everyone. My son and daughter in law have told us how well they were treated while Jordyn was in hospital for almost one week. I wanted to make sure that both the Foundation and the maternity ward personnel know how much we appreciate the excellent care that was provided for both Jordyn and Baby Chudnovsky.

A sincere thank you to Charna and her husband for taking the time to recognize the healthcare team serving our community in the Annapolis Valley!
