COVID-19: An update from the GBGH Foundation

Georgian Bay General Hospital Foundation considers the health and safety of our staff, volunteers, community partners and donors to be of the utmost priority, so we are taking action to protect our community and reduce the spread of the virus.

To continue efforts to socially distance and do our part we have made the decision to postpone and/or cancel donor events, tours, meetings and visits until further notice. We will continue to evaluate day by day and keep you informed as the situation evolves. We encourage you to connect with us via email at foundation@gbgh.on.ca or via phone at 705-526-GIVE(4483).

We wish to express our sincere gratitude for all that our healthcare professionals are doing to care for our community. They are working around the clock to be there for our loved ones. The hospital family is here to support, care, test, operate or rehabilitate. They clean hospital rooms and equipment. Their commitment and dedication during this challenging situation is greatly appreciated.

Now more than ever, we will continue to work to ensure they have the right tools in their hands to help advance the level of care they provide, for their safety and the safety of our community. If you would like to express your Heartfelt Thanks to our hospital care teams please click here.

To everyone in our community who is stepping up to help those in need – a big Heartfelt Thanks to you from the GBGH Foundation.
