NYGH tackles COVID-19

Letter from Samuel Elfassy, Board Chair, North York General Hospital

First responders run towards the problem and help others. With an infection, it is the collaborative response of us all that makes the difference.

COVID-19 Updates: Message from the President (October 8)

In my childhood family home, where my siblings and their families normally gather for weekends such as the one approaching, things won’t be the usual. During Thanksgiving, years ago, someone in my family (p.s. it was me) started the tradition of going around the table and asking each of us to share what they were thankful for.

If you’ve ever had to take a child to the hospital – your own, a niece, a nephew – chances are you were scared. Maybe you didn’t know what to expect, or feared that your child wouldn’t understand what was going on. Maybe you were anxious yourself, and didn’t know how to explain the situation.
