We were excited to welcome Sylvia Jones, Ontario’s Minister of Health and Deputy Premier, to HSN today.
Minister Jones visited our Emergency Department, the Pediatric Ambulatory Care and Acute Inpatient Psychiatry units, our Medicine Lodge and one of the overflow units.
During her visit, our staff shared some of the space challenges we are experiencing with the Minister. It highlighted some of the proposed solutions outlined in our capital master plan aimed at improving care for residents of Northeastern Ontario.
Minister Jones also helped to recognize one of HSN’s healthcare heroes, Registered Nurse Betty-Anne Paradis.
Betty-Anne has been a nurse in Northeastern Ontario for 56 years and continues to work part-time at HSN. Minister Jones proudly presented her with a special scroll to recognize her impressive career and the care she’s provided for patients and their families, particularly in Hemophilia care.
