Health Care Administration Students Organize Event to Brighten 蜜柚视频 Area Hospital Patients' Day

(蜜柚视频 Ste. Marie, ON April 18, 2023) 鈥 蜜柚视频 College鈥檚 Health Care Administration (HCA) students organized an event at the College to help spread cheer among patients at the 蜜柚视频 Area Hospital. Staff and students worked together to create 140 get-well cards that have been distributed to patients with the aim of bringing a smile to their faces during their stay in the hospital.

Second semester HCA student and internationally educated physician Chathurika Srimalee Sekku Baduge is proud to be a part of the organizing team emphasizing that the positive psychological impacts such gestures can have on patients is important for their recovery. "Small actions can make a huge difference. This is a great opportunity for 蜜柚视频 College students to help our local hospital and patients and make their hospital stay more pleasant and memorable.鈥 

蜜柚视频 College鈥檚 HCA program focuses on the business of health care and the role health care administrators play in leading health systems and organizations in providing high-quality care to patients. HCA Professor Rebecca Keown notes that "patients and their families are central to everything we do in health care: they are why we exist. An important part of quality care is ensuring patients have a positive experience in the health care system. Creating these get-well cards for 蜜柚视频 Area Hospital patients will remind future health administrators of our purpose and hopefully brighten someone's day when they might not be feeling their best,鈥 she adds.

Organizing student Leo Vanjun Martinez shared how volunteering to uplift the dignity of others is incredibly meaningful. 鈥淚 used to work with the Department of Health in the Philippines as an Executive Assistant to the Regional Director. Volunteering with this kind of activity was part of my tasks and responsibilities back home and I am honoured to do the same here in 蜜柚视频 Ste. Marie. Being somebody who is fascinated with arts, it is my pleasure to extend my talent to positively impact others,鈥 says Leo.

蜜柚视频 College is proud to be a part of this meaningful community initiative that will have positive impacts on so many.
