If you’ve recently had surgery at Regina’s General Hospital, there’s a chance you received a call from scheduler, Amanda Chase. When Amanda calls to prepare you for surgery, she’s speaking from experience. At just 34 years old, she has had more surgeries than most people twice her age, 101 surgical staples and more stitches than doctors can count.

Ten truths about COVID-19 By Dr. Kevin Wasko 1. COVID-19 is no joke and has the potential to cripple our health-care system. If this happens, people who need li...fe-saving care even unrelated to COVID-19 may not be able to access it. 2. We must all do our part to reduce transmission whether or not we are in contact with vulnerable people. Our actions have a ripple effect. No one is immune and we could all do more. 3. Keep your bubble small by limiting your close contacts to those you live with and those closest to you. Ideally, limit to only the people you live with. 4. We protect those around us and ourselves by wearing a mask. Masks don’t lead to low oxygen, bacterial infections or other ill effects. They don’t infringe on our human rights. Wearing a mask is akin to wearing a seatbelt or a bike helmet with the added benefit of protecting others as well as yourself. 5. Local businesses need your support, but please support them safely. Almost all businesses offer take-out or curb-side pick-up. 6. We should stay home as much as possible to prevent transmission. This means working from home if it is possible to do so. 7. When a contact tracer calls, please be kind, tell them what they need to know, follow instructions, get tested if told to do so, and isolate. 8. Download the COVID Alert app. There is no conspiracy to this and it can speed up contact tracing. 9. Get your flu shot if you haven’t already. The flu shot is accessible and safe. Contact your physician’s clinic or pharmacy to get your flu shot. 10. When the COVID-19 vaccine becomes available, get immunized. It will be safe. Trust the process. Together, we can do this. https://www.saskhealthauthority.ca//Faces-of-the-Fight-Dr-

Every year, more than 14,500 babies and children receive care in our three hospitals. At Hospitals of Regina Foundation, we want to help build an exceptional pediatrics program, so kids and young people across southern Saskatchewan have access to specialized health care when they need it most, right here at home.

Our community has shown time and time again that is full of truly wonderful people and none of what we do would be possible without you. Once again, thank you! Please take a moment and share this video with somebody who should know they helped make lives better!

Each year, our hospitals see approximately 1,500 serious trauma cases, resulting from car accidents and farm or workplace injuries. That’s more than 4 a day! Thanks to community support, the Foundation’s investments in trauma care services in Regina’s hospitals have helped thousands of people from southern Saskatchewan live better lives.

Just in time for the holidays! The Pasqua Hospital Auxiliary Gift Shop announce their new pop up gift shop at Centennial Market every weekend until December 20th. Due to the pandemic the hospital location has been closed since March; so once again you can buy great holiday gifts while supporting investments in Regina’s Pasqua Hospital. The volunteers of the Auxiliary and its gift shop are great partners to HRF and make a huge difference on local lives through the Foundation. We invite you to visit them, shop local and support our community! #community #yqr #SK #saskatchewan #healthcare

Ask anyone who knew Harvey Carriere what he was like, and they will all tell you the same thing. Harvey was fun loving, happy and always a joy to be around. He loved to keep busy and build things, puttering around in the yard or working on cars at the body shop he owned with his brother from 1974 until 2002. His giving nature shone through when Harvey decided that after he passed, the proceeds of the sale of his prized 1966 Ford T-Bird would be donated to the Hospitals of Regina Foundation.
