On the National Day of Mourning, we remember and honour workers whose lives have been forever changed by workplace injuries, illnesses, or loss.

We recognize the strength and commitment of healthcare workers and reaffirm our responsibility to prioritize safety and prevention.

Today, we remember—and we stand together for safer workplaces.

🎉 Big news for our community! 🎉

The Township of Ramara is excited to welcome in-person primary health care closer to home! Starting this July, Dr. Anoushka Mohammadiankhorasani (Dr. Mo) will begin practising at the Ramara Medical Centre in Brechin, marking a major step forward in improving access to care for residents of Ramara.

For many in our rural community, accessing primary care has meant traveling outside Ramara. This new local practice will help change that, bringing essential health services right here where they’re needed most.

Dr. Mo brings more than 12 years of experience in family medicine, including maternity, newborn, mental health, and senior care. In addition to her local practice, she will also support inpatient and emergency care at Orillia Soldiers’ Memorial Hospital.

The new medical practice in Ramara will operate as part of the Couchiching Ontario Health Team, Primary Care Network (PCN), where local health-care providers work together to enhance access to high-quality, integrated services. Through this partnership, allied health professionals from the Couchiching Family Health Team will support services in Ramara, helping to better serve the needs of local residents.

This milestone is made possible through strong collaboration with the Couchiching Ontario Health Team and the Orillia & Lake Country Physician Recruitment Committee, who are also working to secure a second physician to practise alongside Dr. Mo in Ramara.

🌍 Earth Day at OSMH: Thank You for Celebrating With Us! 🌱

This Earth Day, the OSMH Green Team brought sustainability to life with a vibrant booth in the cafeteria—and it was wonderful to see so many team members stop by to take part.

Green Team members shared information, sparked conversations about environmental stewardship, and highlighted how everyday actions support a healthier workplace, patient care, and community. Visitors enjoyed picking up flower and vegetable seeds, sampling a fun dirt cake treat, and testing their knowledge with the interactive “Where does it go?” recycling and waste-sorting game.

The booth was a great example of how learning, connection, and small hands-on actions can make sustainability approachable and engaging. A big thank you to the Green Team members who hosted, and to everyone who participated and helped make Earth Day at OSMH a success. 💚

Together, we continue to grow a more sustainable future—one action at a time.

💜Thank You, Orillia eCapital. 💜

A huge thank‑you to the Orillia eCapital Fun Squad for hosting an internal fundraiser in March in support of OSMH’s IMRS. Their “pot of gold” candy‑grams were a big hit, spreading smiles throughout their office while making a meaningful impact in our community.

Thanks to their generosity, IMRS received an incredible donation of books, activities, toiletries, pajamas, activity books, crafting supplies, water bottles — plus $500 to purchase additional items as needed. These donations will go a long way in supporting patients during their stay.

We are so grateful to this amazing team for turning workplace fun into compassion in action!
