Each month we will share stories of team members at HHCC; their history with the hospital and the transformative work they do every day to strengthen our culture and community. This month we celebrate Patty, Pharmacy Technician.

Bev became a part of the Headwaters family in June 1994 as a part-time Registered Practical Nurse at the Shelburne District Hospital.

Early in her career Bev became very fond of a patient who eventually passed away in her care. This experience left a lasting impression on her and shaped her career as a nurse. To this day, 21 years later, she can tell you the patient’s name, diagnosis, children’s names and the patient’s room number. Bev continues to genuinely connect with each of her patients.

As a child Linda was always helping others and she knew from an early age that nursing was the career path for her.

Linda went to McEachern Training Centre where she obtained a Diploma in Nursing in 1988.

After graduating, she began working at the Shelburne District Hospital in 1989 as a Registered Practical Nurse. Linda has been part of the HHCC family for 31 years; working on E-Wing, Day Surgery and occasionally on D-Wing and F-Wing.

When Kaitlyn’s seven-month-old son Rhett suffered from a persistent fever she feared for the worst.

She made an appointment with her family doctor who recommended that she get a viral swab done as well as a COVID-19 test.
