Meet Penny,

By day, Penny is one of the familiar faces behind the scenes in our lab, ensuring accurate results that help guide patient care. What folks may not know is that beyond the hospital walls, she’s also a published children’s book author, sharing imagination and kindness with young readers around the world.

Penny is just one more example of the incredible talent and heart found in our small hospital community.

Small hospital. Big hearts. 💛

This February, we join Canadians in celebrating Black History Month 2026: “30 Years of Black History Month: Honouring Black Brilliance Across Generations — From Nation Builders to Tomorrow’s Visionaries.”

We proudly stand in support of recognizing Black excellence in health care and beyond, honouring leaders and changemakers like Dr. Yvette Bonny, Dr. John Douglas Salmon, Dr. Onye Nnorom, and Clotilda Yakimchuk, whose work continues to advance more equitable care for all.

We invite our community to learn more about the lasting impact of Black leaders, past, present, and future.

Meet Rebecca.

She’s one of our rural nurses, and she once shared a CT transfer to our neighbouring facility with someone pretty special: her dad, a paramedic. It wasn’t her first CT run, but it was the first one they’d done together.

Moments like this capture why rural healthcare feels different. Care is personal. Families show up together. Neighbours care for neighbours. That’s small town life.

Small hospital. Big hearts. 💛🚑

Celebrating Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion means creating spaces where every voice matters, every perspective is valued, and everyone feels a true sense of belonging.

Meet Dr. Chu.

While covering for one of our local physicians, she decided to fully lean into the role, right down to dressing the part. The result? Lots of smiles and plenty of laughs. It was a small gesture, but a meaningful one. A reminder that some people go out of their way to bring a bit of joy to those around them, and that in healthcare, laughter really can be some of the best medicine.

Small hospital. Big hearts. 💛

Celebrating Diversity, Equity and Inclusion days supports a culture of belonging within our hospitals and the communities we serve, reminding us of the importance of understanding, respect, and connection in everything we do.
