GBGH 2016 | 2 | A message to our community

Karen McGrath, President and CEO, eorgian Bay General Hospital once again took centre stage in our community in 2015; Georgian Bay General Hospital Gthe story revolved around the exceptional care provided by our frontline staff and physicians and the overall dedication of the more than 600 staff members and more than 200 volunteers who make this hospital a vital part of our community. We are all very much aware of the financial challenges faced by our hospital throughout the past four years and last year our hospital and our community was confronted with yet another funding crisis that threatens clinical services at our hospital. And while we have struggled with those challenges we never lost sight of the reason we are here; to serve the health care needs of our community. Over the past year our staff saved more lives, comforted more families and worked harder to improve how we deliver health care services every day. Ralph Befort, Board Chair, We underwent an incredibly successful Accreditation review that left us proud of what we Georgian Bay General Hospital do; the Accreditation Canada team of surveyors had wonderful things to say about our care, our innovative thinking and the improvements we have made over the last four years. What we do here at Georgian Bay General Hospital relies in large part on the support of our community. A community hospital can only succeed when the community is behind it and that commitment to GBGH is more evident every day in North Simcoe. Hospitals play a vital role in the communities they serve and, in turn, the community plays a vital role in helping the hospital keep pace with the ever-changing health-care technology. One of the avenues GBGH uses to connect with the community is through the GBGH Foun- dation. The Foundation brings together the donors who provide the much-needed funds that make it possible for GBGH to provide our health-care professionals with the tools they need to do their jobs – providing the best care possible. Karen Roberts, President, Georgian Bay General Hospital Funding from the province does not include money to purchase capital equipment, which Volunteer Association means GBGH must rely on community support to acquire those tools. Last year, the foundation raised nearly $1.5 million to help the hospital meet patient needs. Everyone at your hospital knows the difference your gifts make. Thank you to everyone who supported us this year – by making a donation, volunteering, hosting or attending one of our events. We can’t do what we do without you!

Carey Moran, President, Georgian Bay General Hospital Foundation

alk about bringing an idea to life! TIn October 2015, Penetanguishene Mayor Gerry Marshall had a vision of bringing his community together to raise funds for their hospital by completing a fi ve kilometer mud run. On March 20, 2016, more than 170 participants converged on Rotary Cham- plain Wendat Park in Penetanguishene to bring Gerry’s vision to life. The fi rst annual March MUDness was born! Participants braved the chilly weather in their colorful team t-shirts, sporting names such as “Cirque du Sore Legs”, “50 shades of Tay” and “I Can’t Believe it’s not Mudder”. With incredible enthusiasm and energy, participants climbed an enormous snow pile, jumped over hay bales and tires, pulled fi re hoses “Let us Put Your Dreams Within Reach”
