Meet Camille, Registered Nurse at MGH.

“As a labour and delivery nurse, I support families through every step of the birthing process: answering questions, providing comfort through contractions, coaching during pushing and helping families have the birth experience they hope for.

“I work with an incredible group of nurses. The senior nurses are knowledgeable and kind, and I was lucky to start alongside a cohort of new grads who have become some of my closest friends. We support each other through everything.

“I’m really inspired by the women I care for. There’s something powerful about women supporting women through labour and birth. The trust and connection that forms in those moments is something I’ll never take for granted.”

It takes a community. 💚

This past October, over 175 healthcare professionals, students, volunteers and community leaders gathered at the Ismaili Centre, Toronto for MGH’s 18th Annual Palliative Care Symposium.

This year's theme “It Takes a Community: Palliative Care Where People Are” brought together hospitals, long-term care, hospices, primary care and community organizations. Participants attended critical sessions covering topics like providing palliative care to people experiencing homelessness, ethical considerations, communication, Indigenous health, and humanizing difficult conversations.

Thank you to everyone who made this powerful day of connection and learning possible, especially to our partners at the Ismaili Centre Toronto, Anishnawbe Health Toronto and the Indigenous Cancer Program.

A special note of gratitude to all our sponsors, including the support of the Moez & Marissa Kassam Equity Fund, Heritage Funeral Centre, McDougall & Brown Funeral Home - Scarborough Chapel and The Death Deck.

Together, we’re building a future where compassionate palliative care is accessible to everyone, everywhere.

Today, on , we express our deepest gratitude and honour the soldiers and veterans who are serving or who have served our country. We remember their courage, sacrifice and dedication to protecting our freedom.

Following the Second World War, we served as Toronto’s temporary veteran’s hospital until 1948, caring for those returning from service. We continue to honour their legacy within our hospital and community.

In celebration of Nurse Practitioner (NP) Week, join us to recognize and celebrate their vital contributions at MGH!

NPs are multifaceted healthcare professionals who do so much to improve healthcare access and quality with an emphasis on health promotion, disease prevention and chronic disease management.

They are registered nurses with graduate level education and advanced clinical training, who can independently assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of health problems, bringing together medical knowledge and the values and skills of nursing.

NPs provide a wide range of healthcare services, often working in collaboration with other health professionals in a variety of settings and populations.

Thank you to the NPs at MGH for delivering high-quality and patient-centred care! 💚

Since launching in August 2024, MGH’s Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) has supported over 1,900 older adult patients through more than 6,500 visits and therapeutic activities.

HELP uses daily visits, therapeutic activities and companionship to prevent delirium and improve the patient experience of older adults during hospital stays. With about 20 volunteers and 12 to 15 health professional externs, the program is now expanding to additional units across our hospital.

“This program embodies what we mean by high-quality and compassionate care,” says Jennifer Sampson, Director of Seniors & Aging and Transitional Care at MGH. “We’re not just treating medical conditions – we're caring for the whole person.”
