Happy Doctors’ Day! Thank you for all that you do!

May 1 is Doctors’ Day!

Today we recognize and celebrate the many contributions physicians make in the lives of patients, their families, and caregivers.

At Northumberland Hills Hospital (NHH), doctors are at the heart of everything we do. Whether they are providing lifesaving interventions, offering expert diagnosis, and guiding patients and families through moments of uncertainty with reassurance and clarity, they demonstrate their dedication to patient care.

Although Doctors’ Day is celebrated once a year, we recognize the many hours that they give to patients—and the time away from their own loved ones—to ensure that a continuum of care is always delivered.

Please join us in saying thank you to the physicians at NHH, and in our communities, for the critical work they do as key members of our healthcare teams!

When Dale Hodge moved to the Northumberland community in 2002, she brought with her a passion for supporting healthcare, and years of hands-on volunteer experience in a hospital setting.

“You never see Dale without a huge smile on her face,” shares Rhonda Cunningham, NHH Foundation CEO. “She is always looking for a way to say yes, to work together, and make the most of every opportunity to help our hospital. We gained far more than new neighbours when Dale and Alan made Northumberland their home.”
