‘We don’t get those days back.’

For patients and families at Dartmouth General Hospital, a cuddle bed means more than comfort — it means closeness during life’s most meaningful moments.

‘If there are ways that we can help facilitate that… being able to provide a comfortable opportunity for people to be close in that way is really important.’
— Patti MacDougall, Palliative Consult Nurse

Thanks to the generosity of our community and the Conrad family, cuddle beds will help families share quiet moments, hold hands, watch movies, and simply be together when it matters most.

“I Just Feel Like This is My Calling”

The Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation offers bursaries for African Nova Scotian and Black high school learners who are interested in a health-related field. Ever year, the bursary program recognizes a different person of African Ancestry, to promote knowledge of Black excellence and Black history. The 2026 Honouree is longtime nurse Rose Fraser.

“I cried when I found out,” she says. “It brings me to tears even now. What it means to me is there is a way forward for so many people, to learn how to treat others, to learn how to be with others and be that link to wholeness. This just fills up my soul so much.”

Rose smiles as she thinks back on a photo from her childhood.
“I’m standing by the Christmas tree in our house with a stethoscope, an apron and a nurses’ cap on,” she remembers. “I was about five or six years old.”

Read more on our DGH Foundation website about Rose’s nursing career, from Camp Hill Hospital and Dartmouth General to therapeutic training and counselling work. You can also learn more about our DGH Foundation bursary program.

Congratulations to Ryan Francis, a valued member of our Dartmouth General Hospital Foundation Strategic Growth Council, on the publication of the new book Skate On, Shirley!

From Nimbus Publishing, the story follows eight-year-old Shirley, an Indigenous girl looking to join a local hockey program. At first, she’s unsure of herself and her ability, but finds friendship and confidence along the way.

Ryan is a member of Wasoqop'aq (Acadia) First Nation and the co-founder of the Indigenous Girls Hockey Program. He co-authored the book with two-time hockey world champion and former player for the PWHL’s Toronto Sceptres and Ottawa Charge, Victoria Bach.

The official launch of Skate On, Shirley! happens this Sunday morning, May 24th, 10am at Mi’kmaw Native Friendship Centre on Brunswick St. in Halifax.

Congratulations Ryan, from your friends at the DGH Foundation!
