AGH-FVM Maintenance Staff

The Maintenance Staff at the Almonte General Hospital and Fairview Manor go above and beyond every day, ensuring the safety of every patient, resident and staff member.

Only a few days ago, our Executive Director Vaia Dimas experienced this first hand stating, "never underestimate the power of the people who work quietly, and diligently, behind the scenes."

When a radiator burst in Vaia's office this week, our maintenance team responded immediately, following every protocol quickly and efficiently, all while making sure no one was hurt and everyone was safe.

Vaia went on to share, "watching them work reminded me that while I rely on relationships and generosity to move our mission forward, they rely on tools, expertise and teamwork to do the same. Different roles. Same purpose. Deep gratitude for the unsung heroes who make this hospital stronger every single day."

We couldn't agree more. Thank you team for all that you do!

Tammy Hirkala is always excited when one of her team members is nominated for a Guardian Angel pin gathering up staff to make sure everyone was there to support and congratulate their team member.

We recently had the chance to turn the tables on Tammy and present her with her own Guardian Angel Pin! Tammy has never been too busy to help the Foundation whenever something was needed. Tammy always took the time to spotlight the Foundation whenever she could and recognized the need to help fund essential medical equipment.

Tammy was the interim Clinical Manager on the Medical Surgical and Complex Continuing Care Units. On her last week on the job, President and CEO Brad Harrington thanked Tammy for all the work she has done and all the care and support she has shown her team, her patients and their families. Tammy’s kind heart and caring attitude showed in the work she did every day.

✨ Inspire and be inspired! ✨

The Student Council at Holy Name of Mary Catholic School brought the love, philanthropy and inspiration to our Foundation office last week, donating $912 which was raised through their Merry Market!

"Our student council hosted a Merry Market before Christmas break. As a team we were very inspired by Dr. Tiffany's letter requesting donations to support our local hospital", said Kristine Caldwell who is a teacher at Holy Name of Mary Catholic and also leads the student council. Katherine went on to share that the student council decided as a team to donate the funds made from their Merry Market to the Almonte General Hospital, making an impact on the amazing care provided to those in need.

Dr. Tiffany was so happy to hear about the kindness of these students, and came over to meet and thank them all for their amazing gift. We also let the students know that their donations will be MATCHED until January 31st, doubling their impact on ensuring quality healthcare in their community!

💛 If you are inspired to donate like our friends from Holy Name of Mary, there's still time to get your gift MATCHED up to $50,000 by the Gillin and Campbell Family! Donate through our website online, mail, or call/visit us at our office.

✨ Thank you Holy Name of Mary Student Council for your generosity!

Residents of Fairview Manor enjoyed the most adorable visit from Giddy Up N Go Ponies last week. Alvin and Simon (the “skunk pigs”) took turns meeting everyone all snuggled in their fluffy blanket for cuddles, while Mary and Tina (the sweetest little chicks) made their way into everyone's hands and hearts.

Thank you to the Recreation Team for always organizing fun activities for everyone to take part in, and to our amazing donors for making it possible!

Patricia Brunelle was excited to nominate three of her co-workers for Guardian Angel pins. Dylan Stackpole, Meg Lor and Laura Kind are very deserving and are true angels.

"Dylan is a very compassionate nurse especially as witnessed by family and staff as he consoled a woman whose husband had passed on the CCC unit. It was like everything stood still for that moment, almost like in a movie scene. Dylan held her hand, was calm and so sincere. He made this grieving woman feel so at ease and very appreciative for Dylan’s help throughout her palliative husband’s care before his death. He’s a wonderful nurse for sure!"

"Meg is a strong advocate for the staff on the CCC unit. Her accent and bubbly laugh has us in stitches all the time. Meg is a dedicated nurse and dedicated worker that we all look up to."

"Laura shows kindness, calmness, and gentleness with our patients. Even when struggling with wanting a family of her own, Laura still manages to show strength in caring for those that are ill. We have laughed, cried, and almost peed our pants. She not only lifts the patients morals, but also the entire staff on CCC."

Dr. Melanie Fortune and Jodi Lee were presented with Guardian Angel pins by Erin and her family.

“I am so incredibly grateful to Dr. Fortune for her care in both our sons' births but especially during my first son's birth. When things started going wrong during labour, Dr. Fortune was incredibly kind and calm, explaining what she was doing and what they were monitoring. When things really took a turn, Dr. Fortune's quick decision making, and expertise ensured my son was born immediately and alive. I can't thank her enough for her actions and care, even postpartum as recovery continued to be difficult. Also, for being present for the birth of our second son, going above and beyond when she wasn't even supposed to be working at the time. Her support and kindness in the hospital and in the community will forever stay with me. Almonte is incredibly fortunate to have her!”

“After a very difficult birth, postpartum was full of many complications. Jodi immediately noticed when I returned a few days later for a follow up that something was wrong. She quickly requested what was required and reassured me every step of the way. I'm grateful for her attentiveness, patient advocacy and ensuring I understood what was going on in terms I understood. Having Jodi as my nurse for almost 2 weeks straight, I always looked forward to the morning in such a dark time, hearing her laugh and knowing she was on her way to check in on me. Without Jodi, I don't believe things would have been as quickly red flagged and will forever be grateful for her.”

Erin also thanked the entire obstetrics team, Dr. Yacoub, Dr. Matei, Dr. Fadare, Dr. Awaad, Dr. Stewardson, as well as Dr. Tiffany, all the anesthesiologists and surgery teams, nurses Jodi, Rosie, Grace, Lisa, Jess, Dina, Hope, Olivia, Cheri, Beth and all the others that provided such compassion and support.

“And thank you to the housekeeping team, the maintenance team, the food services team and to everyone else that keeps our hospital going, thank you!”

Mississippi Mills Fire Dept

Our community is truly blessed to have incredible first responders that are second to none. Today we want to share some love to our friends from the Mississippi Mills Fire Dept. Not only do they protect our community by saving lives, homes and all the things we all hold close to our hearts, but they also go above and beyond that every day! Whether it's hosting pancake breakfasts, inviting Santa to meet the kids or supporting our local Civitan Clubs through various fundraisers, they are always opening their doors and hearts to many that need support within our community.

The Mississippi Fire Dept. came together to help us put the FUN in FUNdraise by participating in the AGH Run for Women's & Newborn Health by not only fundraising, but by exceeding their fundraising goal and walking 5K in full gear! They brought even more fun by bringing a firetruck to the AGH Run for the families to enjoy. We are inspired by their many acts of compassion and incredibly grateful to call them friends.

Kristin was nominated anonymously for a Guardian Angel Pin by a fellow staff member at the Almonte General Hospital.

As the staff member was doing her daily rounds she noticed Kristin.

“I thought it was a family member at first sitting there with the patient. Kristin just stayed there rubbing her back and giving beautiful support and care.

Kristin took the time to allow a patient to vent and sat on the side of the patient’s bed to listen and talked so calmly to the patient.”

The staff member thought it was very important that Kristin got recognized and appreciated for the little things that mean so much to others.

A huge thank you to the Ottawa Valley Silver Seven Hockey U12 AA team for spending the evening with residents at Fairview Manor, playing bingo and bringing smiles to all those in attendance.
