Light Up Your Life honours health staff

The Light Up Your Life Society honoured the WestView Health Centre staff who serve and care for patients with a banner which was generously donated by wonderful LUYL friend and supporter, Tim Getzinger, owner of All Star Signs.

The Light Up Your Life Society installed a banner honouring WestView Health Centre staff on behalf of all those whom they care for and serve.

“Included in their message of gratitude are all the other essential service providers who continue to support WVHC, including delivery companies, suppliers, EMTs and pharmacies,” said Linda McCreath, Director of the Light Up Your Life Society in an email.

The society also donated electronics to help bridge the gap for families that can’t visit people in person.

“In an effort to help Continuing Care residents and hospice patients at WestView Health Centre keep in touch with family and friends during COVID-19 isolation, the Light Up Your Life Society purchased two iPads which will allow those in need to communicate with their loved ones,” McCreath noted.

Recreation therapist at WVHC Continuing Care, Michelle Svarich, said she is grateful for the gift and that she was excited to share this technology with those in her care.
