National Nursing Week – Celebrating our Nurses and Personal Support Workers!

Toronto, May 2023 – CareHop would like to recognize and celebrate our Nurses and Personal Support Workers (PSWs)!

May 8-14 was the National Nursing Week, and May 19 was the PSW Day. We took this opportunity to celebrate and show recognition to our nurses and PSWs for all the hard work and care they provide each day. Our theme this year was appreciation.

Over 30 nurses and PSWs were recognized for their hard work, dedication and quality care provided to patients, clients and families.

A few of our dedicated nurses also received awards from SickKids Connected Care during this week of celebration. Congratulations to Stephanie, Mirna, and Ashley for going above and beyond to assist our clients and their families.

Thank you to these three nurses above and to all our amazing Nurses and PSWs.

We cannot thank you enough for the outstanding work you do every day. The definition of appreciation is ‘a feeling or expression of admiration, approval, or gratitude’(Merriam-Webster) and that’s precisely the feeling we have for you during this special National Nursing Week. Thank you!
