I received the vaccine in order to be safe for my patients, colleagues and family. The more people who take the vaccine, the better the protection and this equates to fewer outbreaks at work, which is a win-win for all. I wanted to be a part of the ‘goodbye wave’ to the Pandemic. #MyWhy #GotTheShot The current phase of the Ministry of Health’s COVID-19 vaccination program enables staff working in patient-facing roles to receive the vaccine. We are pleased to see West Park staff members are beginning vaccinations.

From all of us at West Park Healthcare Centre, have a happy, healthy 2021.

I want to protect the patients at West Park and ensure they are safe. I want to one day be able to hug my family again, I miss them so much. And I wanted to be part of a great historical moment and movement towards a better year. I personally am so grateful to everyone working on these vaccines tirelessly to create a better future for all of us. This pandemic has been exhausting, overwhelming and tiring, and this is a light at the end of a very long and daunting tunnel, and ...I wanted to push my way towards that light. #MyWhy #GotTheShot The current phase of the Ministry of Health’s COVID-19 vaccination program enables staff working in patient-facing roles to receive the vaccine. We are pleased to see West Park staff members are beginning vaccinations. Naomi, a West Park Healthcare Centre recreation therapy assistant, is one of those hospital staff members who #GotTheShot

On behalf of all of us, we’d like to wish all of you a happy and safe #2021. A special thank you to our staff members for the difference their hard work makes - not only during these difficult times - but all year round every year.

I got the vaccine because I trust the science and rigorous testing that has clearly demonstrated its safety. The vaccine is only effective as the # of people that get it, we have the opportunity right now to get ahead of this, help stop the spread and the devastating impact of this virus. The vaccine offers us hope, in what has been a very dark time, to see our families, help our patients, and eventually return to the way used to enjoy life. #MyWhy #GotTheShot The current ...phase of the Ministry of Health’s COVID-19 vaccination program enables staff working in patient-facing roles to receive the vaccine.

It’s #RespiratoryCareWeek, and to celebrate, We Are West Park is applauding respiratory care professionals like Moslema Begum. Moslema is a Respiratory Therapist (RT) who has worked at West Park Healthcare Centre for 16 years. As a clinical student, Moslema was drawn to West Park for its green space and natural environment. After working here as a student, she was hired as an employee and hasn’t looked back. As an RT, Moslema has worked in all respiratory areas of the hospit...al and most recently in our new long-term ventilatory unit. I chose to become a respiratory therapist because it involves direct patient care and bedside care. The patients we see are very critically ill, and we can help them in the moment and that’s what I wanted to do coming into this field. RTs play a major role in clinical care when a patient is acutely ill or having breathing problems. If a patient’s oxygen saturation level is dropping and carbon dioxide level rising significantly, we are hands-on, fixing the problem. We also play a major role when a rapid response or code blue is called, resuscitating a patient or performing CPR. These are the times I really enjoy working directly with patients to make their lives better. Some days are challenging, but I never regret becoming an RT, and every day I feel like I am learning something new. When the COVID-19 pandemic started, we opened a new long-term ventilatory unit and within a short time, we were admitting new patients from the ICU who needed much more complex care than West Park’s usual patient population. So that was a challenge, but I learn new skills every day working here, so it’s worth it.

West Park Healthcare Centre is pleased to be able to support other GTA hospitals during the current #COVID19 surge. Additional capacity in our long-term ventilation services has helped to alleviate ICU pressures in acute care hospitals. #ThankYou #FrontLineHeroes #InThisTogether
