Long Time
Owen Sound Duplicate Bridge Club Member
Makes a Generous Donation
Georgina McKelvie has donated $80,000 to the
Owen Sound Regional Hospital Foundation
to help ER physicians and staff maintain their
emergency medicine skills,
a media release from Grey Bruce Health Services says .
You may recognize the McKelvies as long time
hospital foundation donors
and Owen Sound Attack Hockey supporters
(Ray is the OHL team’s Director of Business Operations).
Georgina has been a breast cancer survivor
for the last 16 years and now has Leukemia.
She says she wanted to make the donation
while she was still able to participate,
and wrote the $80,000 cheque while sitting
on the edge of her palliative care bed.
The money will go towards a portable,
computerized medical mannequin that can
simulate critical care scenarios so doctors
can practice and develop new skills.
Georgina says she’s had great care
over the years at hospital in Owen Sound.
