A WARM WELCOME
                                                            AT GBGH




                                                            When baby Joseph was born in July 2023, parents Matt
                                                            & Lauren had already been back and forth to Georgian
                                                            Bay General Hospital (GBGH) a few times that week in
                                                            anticipation of his arrival.
                                                            Although their delivery had a few twists and turns, the
                                                            couple has nothing but great things to say about their
                                                            experience at the local hospital.
        “The team of nurses and doctors involved were nothing short of amazing,” shares Matt. “They were professional but
        not only that, we felt that they made this whole experience so personal and did a great job of making us feel quite
        calm as we adapted to Joseph’s plans.”

        Matt & Lauren wanted to do something to recognize and honour the amazing care team at GBGH, and learned about
        the GBGH Family Tree, a digital recognition wall in the main lobby of the hospital. Their gift will be invested in the
        Obstetrics program at GBGH, ensuring that the Birthing Unit is equipped with the latest equipment and technology to
        make more amazing birth stories like Joseph’s possible.
        “We just want to say thank you so much for making the birth of our baby boy such a positive and personal experience,” says Matt.
        “Something that I am sure can feel so clinical in other hospitals, felt so personalized and comforting. We appreciate you GBGH.”
