Being sent elsewhere for care when PRHC didn’t have the facilities I needed made me realize the importance of bringing new treatments to our area. I became an ambassador to help make sure more patients like me can get the care they need, where they need it most.

When I heard the words, ‘you have cancer,’ life as I knew it came to a halt. PRHC became my lifeline. Being treated in my community meant less worry and had a positive impact on my recovery. Now, I’m an ambassador to help ensure others can get the care they need, close to home.

We’re ambassadors because our care during COVID was beyond outstanding. Darryl was in the hospital for 4 months – we’re so fortunate. Thank you, PRHC.

The ambassadors hope that by sharing our own stories, we can inspire others to reflect on their connections with the hospital. Each message on the Sharing Tree serves as a reminder of the care, compassion and support that bring us all together.

We are so lucky with the resources we have available at PRHC that our son was able to be delivered, cared for, and checked on throughout his birth. The labour and delivery team are a special kind! Erica and the L&D staff are incredible, and we had the most amazing experience. We will never be able to thank you enough.
