Twenty-six Halton Healthcare volunteers, staff and physicians were honoured with Queen’s Platinum Jubilee pins, of which 13 were associated with Oakville Trafalgar Memorial Hospital.
They were celebrated at a small reception on Oct.13, recognizing their significant contributions and service to their community.
The Canadian Platinum Jubilee pin was created to mark the 70th anniversary year of the late Queen Elizabeth II’s accession to the throne.
Halton Healthcare and the three foundations, Georgetown Hospital Foundation, Milton Hospital Foundation, and Oakville Hospital Foundation, along with their board members, were in attendance to extend their heartfelt thanks and congratulations
"Each one of these people represents the very best in healthcare; compassion, drive, and each of them works tirelessly in service of others," said Art Leitch, Chair of the Oakville HospitalFoundation Board of Directors.
"The past few years have been tremendously challenging, and I wish to acknowledge these deserving individuals who continue to support the hospital and community. We owe them our gratitude."
These recipients personify service and duty and were nominated for their important contributions to the Halton community.
