Dear Residents,

Each February, organizations across the country recognize Resident Doctors Awareness Week (February 7-11), a national celebration of the vital work undertaken by resident physicians for patients and health systems in Canada.
 
On behalf of the staff and patients at HSC I would like to express how much we appreciate your contributions. We are exceptionally proud of all of you for the tremendous personal sacrifice you make each and every day to support our patients and our teams during this unprecedented time. You are part of our team, and together, we ensure that whoever arrives at our door continues to receive the very best care. Because of the pandemic, there were many disruptions and challenges that changed the learning experience considerably, and you have adapted at every turn and found creative ways to grow. Thank you for your commitment, innovation and flexibility. We could not do this without you!
 
Thank you,
 
Shawn Young MD, FRCPC
