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.

Thank you so much for all the hard work you do every day. It’s not easy, but it’s so appreciated. Happy holidays!
The cardiac surgeon saved my life when I had a heart attack 3 years ago. I will always be grateful.
Thank you for helping my kid through tough times. Thank you for taking care of me and making sure I got to go home.
Thank you for all your wonderful care! Blessings to you!
I am SO GRATEFUL for the terrific care I got at the hospital, especially the Rehab wing, after getting two fractures in a bad fall. The nurses, physicians and meal providers were so humane. Then they arranged homecare. Thanks so much.
Thank you for all of your support and care during my cardiac episodes. You all deserve a wonderful Christmas holiday! Thanks!
My son needed stiches above his eye and the PRHC staff took great care of him and had him cleaned up and home in no time at all. Very thankful!
Thanks for all you do. Happy holidays!

Jennie’s Story
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.
Susan & Darryl’s Story
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.
Lisa’s Story
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.
Noah, Jessica & Theo’s Story
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 […]
