TIMMINS - If you're passionate about making a difference, the hospital may have the perfect opportunity for you.
Timmins and District Hospital is looking for people to join its patient and family advisory committee.
"We're looking for people who are passionate about making a difference in the lives of others," said committee member Sylvie Lamarche Lacroix in a news release. "Please consider applying if you're interested in helping to strengthen patient services at the hospital and enjoy engaging in conversation with a diverse group. We welcome all who come to the table with different experiences and backgrounds."
