Caring Spirits: Medical Teams of 7-North

Congratulations to the medical teams of 7-North (General Surgery) at Royal Jubilee Hospital! These dedicated caregivers were recognized by a grateful patient who received outstanding medical assistance during her hospital stay. The patient wanted to say thank you by supporting equipment purchases for 7-North with a donation to the hospital through the Caring Spirit program.

More than 34,000 surgical procedures are performed at Victoria General and Royal Jubilee hospitals each year — the equivalent of about 80 operations a day. Providing our caregivers with the absolute best medical equipment helps ensure patients have a faster, safer surgery and recuperation.

Thank you to Compass Group at Island Health for providing these Caring Spirits with Tim Horton’s coffee and donuts!

Please share to help acknowledge the exceptional work of our hospital teams. Over the next two weeks, we want the entire community to hear about the incredible impact our caregivers have at Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals. We’ll be honouring a new Island Health Caring Spirit recipient almost every day, so follow us on Facebook to keep posted!
