Caring Spirits: Medical Teams of 8-North

The medical teams of 8-North specialize in Lung Health for patients at Royal Jubilee Hospital. Their outstanding commitment to patient care was recently recognized with a Caring Spirit award!

A donor wanted to acknowledge the incredible caregivers that made her husband’s hospital experience positive, from his caring and attentive doctors and nurses to the housekeeping staff that cleaned his room. The donor decided to honour these individuals with a Caring Spirit donation towards new medical equipment for Royal Jubilee Hospital.

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!
