Caring Spirits: Dr. Karan Shetty & Marja Mackenzie
Dr. Karan Shetty (pictured above) and Cardiac Nurse Marja Mackenzie have been nominated as Caring Spirits! These caregivers work in the Coronary Care Unit at Royal Jubilee Hospital, providing lifesaving treatment to cardiac patients who are unstable and require intensive monitoring.
A former patient decided to honour Dr. Shetty and Marja with a donation through the Victoria Hospitals Foundation’s Caring Spirit program. Donations like these help ensure our caregivers have continued access to the absolute best medical equipment.
Please share to help acknowledge the exceptional work of our hospital teams. We want the entire community to hear about the incredible impact our caregivers have at Royal Jubilee and Victoria General hospitals.
