Kudos to all MRTs working tirelessly to provide exceptional care and uninterrupted service during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Being recognized as Essential Healthcare Workers is an obvious and long overdue acknowledgement of the 24/7, 365, holidays, snowdays and all days in-between contributions you make to the health of so many Nova Scotians.

A special nod to all the MRTs working and on-call this weekend as we wrap up the summer.
