Caring Spirits: Surgical Services

The Surgical Services team at Victoria General Hospital has been recognized with a Caring Spirit award! A retired nurse who underwent surgery last year was very impressed by the outstanding care she received, and by the effort staff made to support her husband and keep him informed throughout the procedure.

The patient decided to honor her doctors and nurses with a Caring Spirit donation towards new Operating Room equipment for Victoria General. Here are some members of the Surgical Services team receiving their Caring Spirit certificate and pins. Well done everyone!

Thank you to Compass Group at Island Health for providing these Caring Spirits with Tim Horton’s coffee and donuts!

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.
