Open house — behind-the-scenes tours & more — Wednesday, October 18 — 3 pm to 6:30 pm
In celebration of Northumberland Hills Hospital (NHH)’s upcoming anniversary, staff, physicians and volunteers are inviting the public to an afternoon and evening of special behind-the-scenes tours, information sharing and fun.
Join hospital staff, physicians and volunteers from 3PM to 6:30PM on Wednesday, October 18, as they thank the community for their continued support, demonstrate the health care and volunteer programs available today at NHH, and highlight services and supports expected to grow in the coming years as our community expands.
Hosted by hospital staff and physicians in collaboration with Foundation, Auxiliary and Patient Advisory Council partners, guided tours will depart at 15-minute intervals from the Main Street Bistro on the main floor of the hospital, just inside the front entrance.
The tours—each lasting approximately an hour in length—will take attendees to a variety of service areas throughout the hospital, including:
- Cancer and Supportive Care;
- Dialysis
- Diagnostic Imaging (including opportunities to see first-hand the Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Computed Tomography, Mammography and Fluorscopy units);
- Laboratory;
- Learning Lab;
- Surgical Suites; and more.
Before and after the tour, visitors will be invited to visit with members of the NHH team in the Bistro while visiting information booths from hospital and area partners and enjoying music, refreshments and photo displays highlighting services past and present. In conjunction with the anniversary celebrations, NHH’s 20th Anniversary Working Group is also looking forward to releasing the results of NHH’s recent brand refresh!
“We are very much looking forward to welcoming the community we serve in to celebrate this special occasion,” said Susan Walsh, President and CEO. “When Northumberland Hills Hospital (NHH) opened on October 22nd, 2003, it did so with the support of an exceptionally generous and involved community. NHH has grown immensely in that time, both the services we offer and the team of staff, physicians, midwives and volunteers required to deliver them. We are hard at work to grow further in the coming years as local needs continue to rise. We would not be able to do any of this without the exceptional support and commitment of this community. Please come out and join us on October 18th to see first-hand all that NHH has to offer today and learn more about exciting plans for the future!”
